Patient-Related Risk Factors for Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting: A Systematic Review.
Synthesis in Frontiers in pharmacology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 77 papers, 9 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
backgroundStudies have reported that patient-related factors significantly impact the risk of Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting (CINV). The objective of this study was to analyze those risk factors of CINV through a systematic literature review.
methodsWe searched MEDLINE to identify articles that addressed patient-related risk factors of CINV through clinical studies.
resultsA total of 49 articles were selected for this study. A total of 28 patient-related risk-factors that significantly impact the risk of CINV were documented. Three factors are demographically related, 17 factors are intrinsic in nature and innate to patient's physiology or influenced by physiology, and eight factors are extrinsic in nature. At least five studies identified seven risk factors with notable summary odds ratio: history of nausea/vomiting (odds ratio: 3.13, 95% CI 2.40-4.07, p < 0.05), female sex (odds ratio: 2.79, 95% CI 2.26-3.44, p < 0.05), expectancy of CINV (odds ratio: 2.61, 95%CI 1.69-4.02, p < 0.05), younger age (odds ratio: 2.59, 95% CI 2.18-3.07, p < 0.05), anxiety (odds ratio: 2.57, 95% CI 1.94-3.40, p < 0.05), history of morning sickness (odds ratio: 1.97, 95% CI 1.46-2.65, p < 0.05), and low alcohol intake (odds ratio: 1.94, 95% CI 1.68-2.24, p < 0.05).
conclusionsOncologists can use these factors prior to the initiation of a chemotherapy regimen to identify patients at risk for CINV, in order to focus on more comprehensive antiemetic treatment options for those high-risk patients. This may enable better outcomes and avoid complications.
