Experiences with Wearable Sensors in Oncology during Treatment: Lessons Learned from Feasibility Research Projects in Denmark.
Article in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. 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
backgroundThe fraction of elderly people in the population is growing, the incidence of some cancers is increasing, and the number of available cancer treatments is evolving, causing a challenge to healthcare systems. New healthcare tools are needed, and wearable sensors could partly be potential solutions. The aim of this case report is to describe the Danish research experience with wearable sensors in oncology reporting from three oncological wearable research projects. CASE STUDIES: Three planned case studies investigating the feasibility of different wearable sensor solutions during cancer treatment are presented, focusing on study design, population, device, aim, and planned outcomes. Further, two actual case studies performed are reported, focusing on patients included, data collected, results achieved, further activities planned, and strengths and limitations.
resultsOnly two of the three planned studies were performed. In general, patients found the technical issues of wearable sensors too challenging to deal with during cancer treatment. However, at the same time it was demonstrated that a large amount of data could be collected if the framework worked efficiently.
conclusionWearable sensors have the potential to help solve challenges in clinical oncology, but for successful research projects and implementation, a setup with minimal effort on the part of patients is requested.
