Cancer Patients' Knowledge and Acceptance of Physical Activities for Rehabilitation.
Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
BACKGROUND/
aimPhysical activities are an essential part of patients' rehabilitation in oncology. For cancer patients special sport groups for rehabilitation exist and are reimbursed by the statutory health system. The aim of our study was to evaluate patients' knowledge and acceptance of these offers and their actual sportive engagement. PATIENTS AND
methodsWe used a standardized questionnaire which was distributed in medical oncology and ENT oncology practice.
resultsFrom 200 questionnaires, we got 155 (76%) answers (83 females, 71 males, mean age was 64.8±12.0 years. A total of 80 patients had current cancer therapy. Sportive activity was decreasing from 71% before cancer, to 50% during therapy, to 40% after anticancer treatment. Only 24% of participants were informed about local offers for cancer patients. The 38% of our patients would like to become more active. Gender, former sportive experience, favourite disciplines, and the type of cancer are factors with a high impact on patient's affinity to physical exercise.
conclusionThe presented screening tool offers first and fast information about the patient's affinity to sports and helps the oncologist to offer patients individualized training concepts.
