Exploring Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy Management Practice Patterns Among Oncology Clinicians.
Article in Seminars in oncology nursing, 2024. 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
objectivesApproximately 60% of cancer survivors receiving neurotoxic chemotherapy experience chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) (eg, hand and foot numbness, tingling, or pain). There is only one recommended pharmacological treatment (duloxetine) and one modestly beneficial nonpharmacological treatment (exercise) for CIPN. However, data suggest national guideline recommendations are not routinely practiced. Further, less is known about nurses' CIPN management practices. The purpose of this convergent mixed methods study was to explore oncology clinicians' self-reported practices and perceptions regarding CIPN prevention and management.
methodsOncology clinicians at three cancer centers completed a survey about their recommendations for CIPN prevention and management in practice. A subset of clinicians also participated in a semi-structured interview to explore their perspectives of and motivations for implementing CIPN assessment, prevention, and management in practice. Quantitative data were described (eg, frequency or median) and qualitative data were analyzed using inductive content analysis.
resultsThis study (N = 44 survey responses; n = 9 interviews) resulted in four themes: (1) clinicians primarily recommend gabapentin for CIPN management and often observe cryotherapy used for CIPN prevention, but these interventions are complicated by discomfort, intolerable side effects, and efficacy concerns; (2) clinicians perceive CIPN as troublesome and desire additional information and resources regarding CIPN prevention and management; (3) CIPN-related education provided by clinicians may be limited by patient retention of the amount of education received about cancer treatment and other factors; (4) clinicians use subjective CIPN assessment to screen at each visit for common CIPN symptoms (eg, numbness or tingling) and the impact of symptoms on day-to-day activities.
conclusionsDiscrepancies persist between evidence-based guidelines on CIPN management and current oncology clinician practices. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE: Clinician involvement is needed when developing education and resources to help oncology clinicians provide the most evidence-based care to potentially prevent and manage their patients' CIPN.
