Fear of cancer recurrence in peritoneal malignancy patients following complete cytoreductive surgery (CCRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC): an observational study protocol.
Article in BMJ open, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionFear of cancer recurrence (FCR) is correlated with higher depression levels, worse quality of life and increased utilisation of healthcare services. There is no research on FCR in peritoneal malignancy (PM) patients-a rare type of abdominal cancer. This study aims to explore the prevalence, trajectory, demographic and clinical characteristics that are associated with FCR and its relationship with quality of life in PM patients. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This is a cross-sectional study. Validated measures will be used to collect data on the levels of FCR (Fear of Cancer Recurrence Inventory-Short Form) and quality of life (36-Item Short-Form Health Survey) of PM patients who have had surgery in the last 5 years at the Peritoneal Malignancy Institute in Basingstoke Hospital (minimum N=260). Descriptive statistics, Pearson χ ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Ethical approval was obtained from the HRA and Health and Care Research Wales (HCRW). The results of this study will be shared with the participants of this study, presented at conferences and PM patients' days in the form of presentations or posters, and published in a scientific journal. DISCUSSION: The results of this exploratory study will be used to inform a multicentre observational study to explore the effect of FCR on PM patients' mental health (depression and anxiety), quality of life and healthcare utilisation which will inform a multicentre randomised controlled trial to assess the effectiveness of using evidenced-based interventions to lower FCR in PM patients.
