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

backgroundPoverty is independently associated with relapse and death in childhood cancer despite highly standardized treatment. Prior data show that direct cash support interventions are feasible and improve child outcomes; however, no such interventions exist within pediatric oncology. To address this, we aimed to pilot and refine Pediatric RISE (Resource Intervention to Support Equity), a novel, direct cash support intervention in pediatric oncology. PROCEDURE: This was a single-arm pilot study among low-income children with cancer at a single center. Participants received twice-monthly cash disbursements and optional benefits counseling for 3 months. Parent surveys and qualitative interviews evaluated acceptability, satisfaction, and barriers to utilization to inform refinement.

resultsFamilies received all intended cash disbursements and used funds for essential resources with a reduction in household material hardship. Parents described RISE as useful and acceptable. There was no parent-reported loss or reduction of means-tested government benefits. Parents reported a need for larger disbursements and extended duration to mitigate treatment-associated income losses.

conclusionRISE was acceptable and valuable, with appropriate mitigation of the risk of means-tested government benefit loss or reduction by intervention design. Parent feedback informed refinement, including an increase in cash disbursement dollar amount and duration. The refined RISE intervention is currently being evaluated in a multi-site, randomized signal-finding study.
