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

This study aimed to examine whether risk of withdrawal from HTTx was higher in coastal areas that were severely damaged by tsunami than in inland areas. We conducted a cross-sectional study of 9218 participants aged ≥20 years in Miyagi, Japan. The odds ratios (ORs) and confidence interval (CI) for withdrawal from HTTx in coastal and inland groups were compared using multivariate logistic regression analysis, adjusting for potential confounders. In total, 194 of 5860 and 146 of 3358 participants in the inland and coastal groups, respectively, withdrew from HTTx treatment. OR (95%CI) of withdrawal from HTTx in the coastal group was 1.46 (1.14-1.86) compared to the inland group. According to housing damage, ORs (95% CI) in the no damage, partially destroyed, and more than half destroyed coastal groups compared with the no damage inland group were 1.62 (1.04-2.50), 1.69 (1.17-2.45), and 1.08 (0.71-1.65), respectively. In conclusion, the risk of HTTx withdrawal for participants whose homes in coastal areas were relatively less damaged was significantly higher compared with those in inland areas, while the risk of HTTx withdrawal for participants whose homes were more than half destroyed was not. Post-disaster administrative support for disaster victims is considered vital for continuation of their treatment.
