A longitudinal multidimensional rehabilitation program for patients undergoing allogeneic blood and marrow transplantation (CaRE-4-alloBMT): Protocol for a phase II feasibility pilot randomized controlled trial.
Article in PloS one, 2023. 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
backgroundAllogeneic blood and marrow transplantation (alloBMT) is a curative treatment for blood cancers associated with various treatment-related adverse events and morbidities. Current rehabilitation programs are limited for patients undergoing alloBMT and research is urgently needed to test the acceptability and effectiveness of these programs. In response, we developed a 6-month multidimensional longitudinal rehabilitation program that spans from pre transplant to 3 months post transplant discharge (CaRE-4-alloBMT).
methodsThis study is a phase II randomized controlled trial (RCT) conducted at the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre in patients undergoing alloBMT. A total of 80 patients stratified by frailty score will be randomized to receive usual care (n = 40) or CaRE-4-alloBMT plus usual care (n = 40). The CaRE-4-alloBMT program includes individualized exercise prescriptions, access to online education through a dedicated self-management platform, wearable technology for remote monitoring, and remote tailored clinical support. Feasibility will be assessed by examining the recruitment and retention rates and adherence to the intervention. Safety events will be monitored. Acceptability of the intervention will be assessed through qualitative interviews. Secondary clinical outcomes will be collected through questionnaires and physiological assessments at baseline (T0, 2-6 weeks pre-transplant), transplant hospital admission (T1), hospital discharge (T2), and 3 months post-discharge (T3).
conclusionThis pilot RCT study will determine the feasibility and acceptability of the intervention and study design and will inform full-scale RCT planning.
