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

Novel therapies have transformed treatment for chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL), but how they have changed treatment for frail patients is unclear. Using Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results-Medicare data, we conducted a nested case-control analysis to evaluate the influence of frailty, measured with Function-Related Indicators (FRIs), on first-line treatment initiation. Four FRIs were positively associated and seven were negatively associated with treatment initiation, representing CLL/SLL symptoms and general frailty, respectively. During the chemoimmunotherapy era (2006-2013), patients with general frailty were significantly less likely to initiate treatment (aOR for 1 FRIs: 0.86, 95% CI 0.77-0.96; 2 FRIs: 0.83, 95% CI 0.70-0.98; ≥3 FRIs: 0.55, 95% CI 0.0.44-0.68 versus 0 FRIs). By 2019, this relationship diminished (p
