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

IntroductionThis study examined relationships between patient reported quality of life and demographic, disease related, and clinician-patient communication variables in people with leukaemia, using a validated haematological malignancy specific patient-reported outcome measure to provide insights to help improve care and enhance patient well-being.MethodsA prospective global cross-sectional online questionnaire study was conducted, with people self-identifying as patients with leukaemia, that included 100 items on demographics, information on communication, disease and treatment and the Haematological Malignancy Patient-Reported Outcome (HM-PRO) instrument. The HM-PRO scores were analysed using Kruskal-Wallis tests and Gradient Boosting Decision Trees (GBDTs) to identify key factors associated with patient outcomes.Results2,260 patients with leukaemia participated, from 64 countries, of whom 1,993 completed the HM-PRO Part-A (measure of QoL) and 1,951 completed Part-B (signs and symptoms). The HM-PRO scores varied significantly by demographic factors, with younger patients (18-25) and people with acute leukaemia reporting the highest scores. Communication about treatment decisions and side effects was significantly associated with HM-PRO scores (η
