Multidisciplinary lifestyle intervention to manage pancreatic cancer-related cachexia: a case report.
Article in Future science OA, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Pancreatic cancer remains an aggressive disease, with a poor prognosis and a high risk of incurring into cachexia. Supportive care, such as exercise, nutritional and psychological support, may be effective in reducing functional loss, psychological distress and improving nutritional status. We report the effect of 12 weeks of multimodal lifestyle intervention in a 55-year-old female, diagnosed with unresectable body/tail pancreatic cancer and metastasis in the liver, bone, lymph node and lung, to counteract cachexia. The multimodal program resulted safe and feasible. Over 12 weeks, considerable improvements were found in body weight, health-related physical fitness, nutritional status, distress scores, anxiety and depression levels. These findings highlight the potential role of integrated supportive interventions to manage metastatic cancer and cancer-induced cachexia.
