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

objectivePatients with gynecologic cancers demonstrate different psychosocial outcomes based on their cancer site, which may affect treatment effectiveness and survivorship. Demographic differences and the relation with depression (DP) among women who have a gynecologic cancer diagnosis are not well understood.

methodsTo assess whether survivors of gynecologic cancer had a greater risk of DP compared with women with and without a history of cancer, 2020 BRFSS data was utilized. Pearson chi-square and multivariable logistic regression were conducted to obtain adjusted odds ratios.

resultsPrevalence of DP was 20 % higher among survivors of gynecologic cancer; this was consistent across race/ethnic and urban/rural categories. Odds of DP among gynecologic cancer survivors were 2.5xs those without any history of cancer. Among Black and Hispanic gynecologic cancer survivors, the adjusted odds of DP were 4.5 and 3.2 times those with no cancer or a history of any cancer.

conclusionsThe odds of having DP were significantly higher among gynecologic cancer survivors compared to women without any history of cancer, breast cancer survivors, or survivors of other cancers.
