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
The purpose of this integrative literature review was to identify nursing research opportunities related to outpatient acute cancer symptom management within emerging urgent cancer clinics (UCCs). Patients with acute cancer symptoms (e.g., fevers, gastrointestinal disturbances, or uncontrolled pain) from ambulatory settings predominantly rely on emergency departments (EDs) for assessment and treatment. However, this model of care is no longer sustainable and emphasizes healthcare system inefficiencies. Urgent cancer clinics allow patients to have these symptoms treated by oncology experts within ambulatory cancer centres. Unfortunately, limited research on urgent cancer clinics both operationally and experientially makes it difficult for others to adopt this new model of care. The core questions that guided this integrative review were: 1) What is the state of the science regarding UCCs, and what differences exist when compared to EDs in the management of outpatient acute cancer symptoms? and 2) Where do UCCs exist around the world, and what is understood about UCCs related to clinic operations and staffing models?
