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

Background: Patients with cancer are at high risk for cardiovascular events, especially venous and arterial thromboembolism (VTE/ATE). Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) has been identified as risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. However, there is limited insight into the impact of CH on thrombosis risk in patients with cancer. Objectives: The aim of this study was to elucidate the association between CH and cancer-associated VTE and ATE within the framework of the Vienna Cancer and Thrombosis Study (CATS), a prospective observational cohort study. Methods: Peripheral blood DNA samples collected at study inclusion were screened for CH-associated mutations. Results: In this study, 967 patients (median age: 61 [interquartile range, IQR: 50-68] years, 49.9% female) were included and followed-up for a median of 24 (IQR: 24-24) months. Of those, 787 (78.3%) had newly diagnosed cancer and 434 (44.9%) had stage IV disease. We identified 52 CH-associated variants in 46 patients (4.8%). Mutations in the genes Conclusion: In our cohort of patients with cancer, the presence of CH was not associated with an increased risk of VTE or ATE. CH had no independent impact on overall survival.
