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

Global climate change has been shown to have significant health impacts, which has been the subject of several scoping reviews. As surgical oncologists, we see both (1) the negative effects of climate change that increase the risk for cancer in the general population and (2) the contributions of our multidisciplinary cancer management on fueling climate change. As such, there is a perpetuating feedback loop where climate change has been shown to increase cancer incidence, but cancer treatment in turn contributes to climate change. In recognizing climate change as a significant issue, many organizations have raised awareness of sustainable health care and promoted sustainable practices to reduce waste and help mitigate the impact of health care on the environment. To this end, the Society of Surgical Oncology (SSO) established the Surgical Oncologists for Sustainability Committee. Our objectives in this paper are to (1) increase awareness among our surgical oncology community about the issues regarding sustainable cancer surgery, (2) outline the unique problems related to cancer care caused by climate change, and (3) broadly review high-yield changes that can be made to promote sustainability in surgical oncology. We aim to inspire and begin to equip surgical oncologists to lead environmental sustainability in their practices and their communities.
