Comparison of the efficacy of cryotherapy and compression therapy for preventing nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy: A prospective self-controlled trial.

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
backgroundRecently, the efficacy of cryotherapy and compression therapy to prevent taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy has been reported. We prospectively compared the efficacy of cryotherapy using a frozen glove (FG) and compression therapy using a surgical glove (SG) to prevent nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-PTX)-induced peripheral neuropathy. PATIENTS AND
methodsBreast cancer patients who received 260 mg/m
resultsBetween August 2017 and March 2019, 43 patients were enrolled and 38 were evaluated. No cases showed discordance of peripheral neuropathy between each gloved group in cases of CTCAE ≥ grade 2. In cases of PNQ ≥ grade D, using the Nam equivalence test, the upper test (P = 0.0329) and lower test (P = 0.0052) both showed negative results in comparisons between each gloved group. Fingertip temperature was significantly lower in the FG group than in the SG group after treatment (P < 0.0001).
conclusionsIt seems to be no difference in incidence of nab-PTX-induced peripheral neuropathy using either cryotherapy or compression therapy.
