Effect of heated humidified high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygen therapy in dyspnea patients with advanced cancer, a randomized controlled clinical trial.
Trial report in Supportive care in cancer : official journal of the Multinational Association of Supportive Care in Cancer, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeHeated humidified high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygen therapy is one of the most important oxygen therapy methods, which are commonly applied to relieve dyspnea in advanced cancer patients. Our study aims to observe the efficacy and safety of HFNC oxygen therapy on dyspnea patients with advanced cancer and explore the clinical application.
methodsSixty subjects with advanced cancer requiring oxygen therapy from a grade 3, class A hospital in China were recruited and randomized (1:1) to traditional nasal catheter oxygen therapy or HFNC. Primary outcomes were dyspnea, oral dryness, and sleep condition, which were recorded after 72-h treatment. Secondary outcomes were heart rate (HR), respiration rate (RR), S
resultsSeventy-two hours after treatment, there were significant improvements in all primary outcomes (P < 0.001). P
conclusionHFNC oxygen therapy has good effect, high safety, and is easy to be accepted by dyspnea patients with advanced cancer. It can be used as the first choice of oxygen therapy for these patients and has broad clinical prospects.
