1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Purpose: This nationwide Danish cohort study compared overall survival (OS) between non-Western immigrant patients and Danish-born patients with lymphoma in Denmark. Furthermore, differences in clinical and socioeconomic variables were compared, and mediators of OS differences were explored to explain possible outcome differences. Patients and Methods: The study included a total of 540 non-Western patients and 16,294 Danish-born patients diagnosed with lymphoma in the period 2000-2020. Inverse probability weighting and mediation analysis using a natural effects Cox model were used to investigate the causal relationship between immigration status and OS. Results: Indirect effects mediated through differences in performance status and income indicated a trend towards inferior OS for non-Western immigrant patients with HRs of 1.06 (0.99-1.14) and 1.06 (0.99-1.14). However, no total causal effect of immigration status on OS was observed overall (HR: 0.94 [0.79-1.12]) and within subtype-specific analyses, except for classical Hodgkin lymphoma. Conclusion: No significant differences in OS between non-Western immigrant patients and Danish-born patients were discovered.
