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
objectivesPatients with cervical cancer who have received radiotherapy often suffer from systemic muscle volume reduction and quality of life decline due to systemic effects of tumor and side effects of radiotherapy. The purpose of this study was to investigate the status of muscle fitness, quality of life, and psychological pain in patients with cervical cancer who received radiotherapy, and to explore the correlation between muscle fitness, quality of life, and psychological pain.
methodsA total of 202 cervical cancer patients aged 19-71, who received radiotherapy in Hunan Cancer Hospital from July 2020 to February 2021, were selected by convenience sampling method. Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy Cervix (FACT-CX) and Distress Thermometer (DT) were used for the survey. The patient's grip strength was assessed by a handgrip meter and compared with that of healthy Chinese women of the same age. The correlation between muscle fitness and quality of life and psychological pain was analyzed.
resultsThe grip strength of cervical cancer patients receiving radiotherapy was significantly lower than that of healthy Chinese women at the same age (
conclusionsThe grip strength of patients with cervical cancer undergoing radiotherapy is generally decreased, which is affected by many factors, and is closely related to the quality of life and psychological pain of patients. In the future, dynamic attention should be paid to the changes of grip strength and related functions in patients receiving radiotherapy for cervical cancer, the potential risks in the treatment should be identified early, and targeted intervention should be taken.
