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

IntroductionAdolescents and young adults (AYAs; 15-39 years old) with cancer experience poorer health outcomes and lower engagement in survivorship care often due to disproportionate financial toxicity and unmet health-related social needs (HRSN; e.g., food insecurity, housing instability, transportation barriers). Research has shown that needs navigation, the systematic screening, referral, and follow-up to resolve these barriers, is a potential strategy to reduce financial hardship. We assessed the feasibility of AYA-NAV, a centralized needs navigation intervention, through a pilot study involving AYAs with cancer.MethodsA prospective pilot study at a comprehensive cancer center screened AYAs for financial toxicity (i.e., COmprehensive Score for financial Toxicity (COST) score ≤22) and unmet HRSN. Patients who screened positive received the intervention, AYA-NAV, including case management support and digital HRSN navigation. Participants completed monthly check-ins with the study navigator to assess needs and, if appropriate, request navigation support. Participants completed surveys at 6 months to explore changes in COST or HRSN.ResultsThirty AYAs consented (23 female, mean age: 32.3 years, range: 18-39 years) to participate. Twenty-six (87%) screened positive for either financial toxicity or unmet HRSN, and 23 of them received AYA-NAV (88%). Retention at 6 months was 15 of 23 (65%). Participants who received AYA-NAV indicated that the intervention was acceptable and appropriately addressed needs through various referrals to community organizations. Among AYAs who participated in AYA-NAV and completed a 6-month questionnaire, COST scores increased significantly (
