[Analysis of non-scheduled consultations in patients with digestive neoplasms].
Article in Revista espanola de salud publica, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveNon-scheduled consultation is very frequent among patients with cancer, creating alterations and delays in programmed visits. We describe the incidence of non-scheduled consultations in patients with digestive cancer in our hospital.
methodsDescriptive, prospective, non-interventional study. In a six-month period (May-December 2017), non-scheduled visits were chronologically recorded in the medical oncology consultation of digestive tumours of Hospital Juan Ramón Jiménez de Huelva. We performed a descriptive analysis of the variables collected through the statistical program G-STAT v.2.0.
resultsPatients with colon or rectal cancer generated most consultations (68.63%). followed by pancreatic (9.15%) and gastric (5.23%). Most patients had metastatic or advanced stage cancer (59.87%) and were under palliative or symptomatic treatment (58.82%). The most frequent reason for consultation was clinical symptoms (47.05%). followed by information demand (18.30 %).
conclusionsNon-scheduled consultations in cancer patients are frequent; they cause interference in scheduled consultations and not always resolved satisfactorily. We propose several measures to reduce the number of non-scheduled consultation in oncology.
