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

backgroundDyspnea is a common and distressing symptom in patients with cancer. To improve its management, multicenter confirmatory studies are necessary. Research policy would be useful in conducting these studies. Here, we propose a new research policy for the management of dyspnea in patients with cancer.

methodsThe first draft was developed by a policy working group of 11 specialists in the field of supportive care or palliative care for dyspnea. Then, a provisional draft was developed after review by a research support group (the Japanese Supportive, Palliative and Psychosocial Care Study Group) and five Japanese scientific societies (Japanese Association of Supportive Care in Cancer, Japanese Society of Medical Oncology, Japanese Society of Palliative Medicine, Japanese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine and Japanese Society of Clinical Oncology), and receipt of public comments.

resultsThe policy includes the following components of research policy on dyspnea: (i) definition of dyspnea, (ii) scale for assessment of dyspnea, (iii) reason for dyspnea or factors associated with dyspnea and (iv) treatment effectiveness outcomes/adverse events. The final policy (Ver1.0) was completed on 1 March 2021.

conclusionsThis policy could help researchers plan and conduct studies on the management of cancer dyspnea.
