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

Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is a B-cell neoplasm with a cure rate of 90%. Previous data on late morbidity in patients with HL cover the era of older treatment modalities. This real-world study consisted of 2912 patients diagnosed with HL between 2000 and 2019 in Finland and aimed to clarify the incidence of late-onset cardiopulmonary morbidity compared to matched controls. Patient data were collected from four nationwide Finnish healthcare registries. We reported a higher occurrence of coronary artery disease in patients aged < 50 years at diagnosis than in controls (RR 3.80 (2.16-6.74), p < 0001). Additionally, a higher incidence of both heart failure (RR 1.68 (1.28-2.21), p < 0.001) and valvular heart disease (RR 1.80 (1.17-2.78), p = 0.006) was detected in patients aged ≥ 50 years at diagnosis than in the controls. Remarkably, in the < 50 years age group, the incidences of pneumonia (RR 4.89 (3.58-6.71), p < 0.001) and pulmonary embolism (RR 7.78 (2.75-21.95), p < 0.001) were higher than those in the control group. In conclusion, with the current treatment modalities, late cardiopulmonary morbidity in long-term survivors remains a great challenge. A strategy for primary prevention and early detection of late toxicity remains crucial and a critical evaluation of current treatment practices is warranted.
