Factors associated with fatigue one month after surgery in patients with gastrointestinal cancer.

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
objectiveThe purpose of this study was to examine the factors associated with the occurrence of cancer-related fatigue (CRF) one month after surgery in patients with gastrointestinal cancer.
methodThe study included 96 patients with gastrointestinal cancer (50 males and 46 females, mean age 62.7 ± 11.4 years). Data of the Cancer Fatigue Scale (CFS), 6-minute walk distance (6MWD), and hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS) were obtained before surgery and one month after surgery. The subjects were divided into the following two groups: severe CRF group (CFS score of ≥19 points) and mild CRF group (CFS score of <19 points). Each parameter was compared between the severe and mild CRF groups. The factors associated with CRF were identified by logistic regression analysis involving factors with significant differences between the groups.
resultThe CFS score showed a significant interaction, and the CFS score, 6MWD, and HADS score showed significant differences both before and one month after surgery between the two groups. The CFS score was significantly higher in the severe CRF group than in the mild CRF group both before and one month after surgery. Additionally, the 6MWD was significantly lower in the severe CRF group than in the mild CRF group both before and one month after surgery. The factors identified on logistic regression analysis were the preoperative CFS score and preoperative 6MWD.
conclusionCRF occurring one month after surgery might be affected by preoperative fatigue and preoperative exercise tolerance.
