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

Hematologic malignancies cause premature mortality and disability across the life course, but their welfare burden is difficult to compare across countries. We monetized global burden of disease (GBD) 2023 disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) for major hematologic malignancies in 188 countries from 2015 to 2023 using a value of lost welfare framework incorporating purchasing power parity adjusted gross domestic product (GDP), income transfer, age-specific valuation, and discounting. Global leukemia-related value of lost welfare (VLW) increased from US$1.40 trillion to US$1.70 trillion, while VLW/GDP declined from 1.89% to 1.62%. Non-Hodgkin lymphoma contributed the largest absolute welfare loss, and acute myeloid leukemia accounted for the largest share within leukemia. Country-level VLW/GDP was highest in selected middle-income and small-economy settings, and age-specific VLW peaked at 60 to 64 years. VLW/GDP provides a standardized welfare burden indicator that complements epidemiological and health system cost metrics.
