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

(1) Background: Older adults with multiple myeloma (MM) contend with multifaceted physical, psychological, and existential challenges that may compromise quality of life (QoL). This study examined associations between physical symptom burden, functional capacity, depression severity, meaning in life, and QoL in older adults with MM. (2) Methods: Fifty outpatients (mean age = 67.7 ± 8.8 years) completed the EORTC QLQ-C30, PHQ-9, and Meaning in Life Questionnaire (MLQ). QoL was the primary outcome. Secondary outcomes included physical symptom burden (fatigue and pain), functioning domains, depression severity, and meaning in life. Internal consistency of all instruments was satisfactory (Cronbach's α > 0.70). Analysis and associations among variables were done using Pearson's and Spearman's correlation coefficients (
