1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Among the 7.8 million women with breast cancer worldwide, at least 33% to 44% of them are affected by lymphatic pain. Lymphatic pain refers to co-occurring pain (e.g., pain, aching or soreness) and swelling. Pharmacological approaches, such as the uses of NSAIDS, opioids, antiepileptics, ketamine and lidocaine, have very limited effects on lymphatic pain. Limited research in this field has made it difficult for patients and clinicians to differentiate lymphatic pain from other types of pain. Precision assessment to distinguish different types of pain is essential for finding efficacious cure for pain. Innovative behavioral interventions to promote lymph flow and reduce inflammation are promising to reduce lymphatic pain. The goal of this review is to provide a comprehensive understanding of lymphatic pain through research evidence-based knowledge and insights into precision assessment and therapeutic behavioral intervention for lymphatic pain.
