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
backgroundThere is no information on whether vulnerable older patients with cancer consider basic activities of daily living (BADL) and instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) important outcomes. Our survey aimed to investigate the priority of BADL and IADL in outcomes among vulnerable older patients with cancer.
methodsThis was a single-center survey in a Japanese cancer center. Eligible patients were ≥ 65 years of age and were prescribed in-hospital rehabilitation while under cancer treatment. Using original self-administered ranking questionnaires, patients were asked to rank outcomes and subdomain of BADL and IADL. High-priority domains were defined as the highest, second-highest, and third-highest priority domains in individuals.
resultsA total of 169 patients were analyzed. The mean age was 74.0 years (standard deviation, 5.1 years) and the number of males was 107 (63%). The order of ranking of high-priority outcomes was BADL and IADL (n = 155), cognitive function (n = 91), mental function (n = 82), nutrition (n = 61), social function (n = 51), comorbidity (n = 39), and life span (n = 28). The top three high-priority independence subdomains of BADL and IADL were toilet use (n = 140), feeding (n = 134), and mobility (n = 69) among the BADL and shopping (n = 93), food preparation (n = 88), and ability to handle finances (n = 85) among the IADL.
conclusionsBADL and IADL can be considered the most important health outcomes in clinical trials and in practice among older patients with cancer and physical vulnerabilities.
