[Cancer-related fatigue and immune checkpoint inhibitors].
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 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
Cancer-related fatigue (CRF) is a common, burdensome, debilitating subjective sense of tiredness or exhaustion in patients with cancer. The pathogenesis is assumed to be multifactorial with CRF being a final common pathway. Among other things, treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) is also associated with CRF. However, the toxic adverse events of ICI are not inevitably the only cause for CRF. Therefore, the diagnostic procedure should address other possible influencing factors, e.g., somatic, mental, cognitive, and psychosocial causes. To manage CRF evidence-based, causal, and symptomatic therapies are available. The key condition to manage CRF is active listening and shared decision making (SDM) with the goal to select those interventions from the broad spectrum of therapies that are best suited for the particular patient and their life circumstances. Providing information about ICI and CRF to reassure patients is already an effective intervention.
