Treatment exposure-based risk-stratification for care of survivors of childhood cancer: a report from the childhood cancer survivor study.
Article in Journal of the National Cancer Institute, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
backgroundTreatment exposure-based risk-stratification of long-term cancer survivors may help inform health care in survivorship clinics. We used the large, diverse population of the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study to test a modified, exposure-based strata previously developed within United Kingdom to classify survivors with respect to risk of late morbidity and health-related mortality.
methodsFive-year survivors of childhood cancer were categorized into low-, medium-, and high-risk groups based on treatment exposures and diagnosis. Primary endpoints included cumulative health-related (ie, nonrecurrence, nonexternal) late mortality and cumulative incidence of severe or fatal (CTCAE grade 3-5) chronic health conditions conditional on reaching age 20 without the outcome. Siblings were a comparison group for chronic health conditions. Cox proportional hazards models were adjusted for sex, race, ethnicity, and age at diagnosis.
resultsAmong 15,346 survivors diagnosed 1970-1999, the risk of developing a severe chronic condition by age 35 was 11.9% (95% confidence interval [CI] = 9.9% to 14.3%), 15.1% (13.7% to 16.6%), and 25.4% (24.3% to 26.5%) for low-, medium-, and high-risk survivors, respectively, and 6.9% (6.1% to 7.9%) for siblings. Multivariable analysis confirmed higher likelihood of developing a chronic condition in high (hazard ratio [HR] = 2.9, 2.5 to 3.4) and medium (HR = 1.5, 1.3 to 1.8) versus the low-risk group. Health-related mortality was similarly increased among high (HR = 5.1, 3.8 to 7.0) and medium (HR = 2.5, 1.8 to 3.4) risk groups, as well as Black versus Non-Hispanic White survivors (HR = 1.7, 1.3 to 2.1).
conclusionsExposure-based risk categorizations can provide generalized risk stratification regarding future chronic health conditions and early mortality and may be useful in guiding management of childhood cancer survivors.
