Mortality in Patients With Hodgkin Lymphoma and Heart Failure: A Swedish Population-Based Study.
Article in JACC. Advances, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
backgroundWhile individuals treated for classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) have an increased risk of heart failure (HF), the effect on survival is less clear.
objectivesThe purpose of this study was to compare all-cause mortality following HF diagnosis between patients with prior cHL and comparators, with cardiovascular (CV)-specific mortality as an explorative outcome.
methodsPatients with cHL and subsequent HF were matched 1:2 with comparators with HF on sex, birth year, year of HF, and contact type (inpatient/outpatient). Follow-up began at HF and ended upon death or censoring (emigration; December 31, 2023; or maximum 5 years). HRs with 95% CIs were estimated using flexible parametric survival models adjusted for matching variables.
resultsBetween 2000 and 2022, 257 patients with cHL and 514 comparators were included. The median age was 73 years, and males predominated (64%). Over a median follow-up of 2.5 years for cHL and 3.3 years for comparators, respectively, 130 (51%) and 192 (37%) died. Lymphoma-related death dominated in the cHL group (40%), while CV death dominated among comparators (42%). All-cause mortality was higher for patients with HF and prior cHL than HF comparators (HR: 1.81; 95% CI: 1.44-2.26). CV-specific mortality did not differ overall (HR: 1.17; 95% CI: 0.78-1.75) except for patients with HF ≥10 years after cHL (HR: 3.13; 95% CI: 1.71-5.73).
conclusionscHL was associated with higher all-cause mortality following HF diagnosis. CV-specific mortality was significantly higher for patients with HF ≥10 years after cHL, possibly highlighting the impact of late treatment toxicity, although careful interpretation is warranted given the strong competing risk of lymphoma-related deaths.
