Review in Der Onkologe : Organ der Deutschen Krebsgesellschaft e.V, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundSurvivorship care programs (SCP) are increasingly being implemented in order to ensure long-term and comprehensive care of physical and psychosocial cancer-related sequelae among survivors. In this article, we provide a short overview of SCP and the importance of health-related self-management.

resultsThe broad definition of "survivorship" and the high diversity of impairments among cancer survivors warrants a personalized and multidimensional approach. This in turn requires both interdisciplinary and integrated care. To date, the state of knowledge on the efficacy of SCP is limited. A central aim of SCP is to increase health-related self-management, which in turn requires the ability to correctly evaluate and apply health-related information in order to resolve health-related problems (health literacy). Due to the technological developments, additional skills are needed to stay health literate (digital health literacy).

conclusionFurther research on the efficacy of SCP is warranted. Both advantages and risks of digital health programs need to be carefully weighed to avoid inequalities in health care ("digital divide"). Specific education programs to improve digital health literacy may help to minimize such risks.
