Risk of cardiovascular disease among head and neck cancer survivors: A population-based matched cohort study.
Article in Oral oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundIn the United States, approximately 63,000 Americans develop head and neck cancer (HNC) annually. Our study aims were to investigate cardiovascular complications and risk factors for development of CVD among HNC survivors.
methodsUtilizing the Utah Populations Database, a total of 1,901 HNC patients diagnosed and 7,796 birth year, sex, and birth state matched individuals from the general population were identified. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard models were used.
resultsWithin the first two years after cancer diagnosis, HNC survivors had a higher likelihood of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD). High Charleston Comorbidity Index (CCI) score at baseline (Hazard Ratio (HR) 1.67, 95 % 1.28-2.17), stage II and IV disease (HR 1.80, 95 % 1.29-2.51), age >=65 years old (HR 2.31, 95 % 1.85-2.88), chemotherapy (HR 1.47, 95 % 1.15-1.88) were associated with increased CVD risk.
conclusionsCompared to the general population, HNC survivors were more likely to develop cardiovascular diseases, particularly if they had the following risk factors: older age, stage II or IV cancer, high baseline CCI score, and chemotherapy were risk factors for development of CVD.
