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

backgroundPrior studies evaluating racial disparities in cancer outcomes used regional measures of deprivation when accounting for socioeconomic status, which lack granularity. We evaluated differences in prostate cancer mortality between Black and White men using individual home prices in addition to regional metrics to understand the impact of individual wealth on prostate cancer outcomes.

methodsIndividuals diagnosed with prostate cancer between January 2004 and December 2016 in the Ohio Cancer Incidence Surveillance System were included. Individual home addresses were linked to the Area Deprivation Indices and home prices using data from an online real estate marketplace. Using inverse probability weighting to balance patient characteristics, we assessed differences in prostate cancer-specific mortality or other-cause mortality between Black and White men after accounting for clinical characteristics and social determinants of health (insurance, area deprivation, and home price).

resultsWe identified 70 660 (85%) White and 12 192 (15%) Black men with prostate cancer. Black race was associated with a higher risk of prostate cancer-specific mortality in models that adjusted for age and year at diagnosis (subdistribution hazard ratio = 1.45, 95% CI = 1.45 to 1.57) and with the addition of cancer variables (subdistribution hazard ratio = 1.16, 95% CI = 1.06 to 1.26). In models that incorporate social determinants of health, however, rates of prostate cancer-specific mortality and other-cause mortality were not statistically significantly higher for Black men (subdistribution hazard ratios = 1.10, 95% CI = 0.98 to 1.24, and 1.02, 95% CI = 0.95 to 1.09), respectively.

conclusionsAfter accounting for clinical characteristics and social determinants of health at the individual level, Black men were not at increased risk of prostate cancer mortality relative to White men.
