Incidence of oral manifestations in hematological malignancy patients undergoing chemotherapy: prospective cohort study.

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
backgroundOral manifestations are frequent in patients with hematological malignancies undergoing chemotherapy and may be directly or indirectly related to drug toxicity. Few studies have assessed the chemotherapy and oral manifestations that patients might develop. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the incidence of oral manifestations in patients with hematologic neoplasms during hospitalization and chemotherapy. MATERIAL AND
methodsA Prospective Cohort Study, in which adult patients diagnosed with hematological malignancies undergoing chemotherapy were followed up daily to observe the possible development of oral manifestations. Sociodemographic and oncological data as well as oral manifestations when presented were collected. All the patients underwent photobiomodulation to prevent mucositis. STATA/SE 12.0, and Excel 365 software were used to assess the collected data. Fisher's exact test was used to assess categorical variables.
results95 patients were included in this study. Sixty four (67,4%) of the patients were male, 31 female (32,6%) and the mean age was 44 years of age (SD 15,1) ranging from 19 to 79. Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is the most common neoplasm. Cytarabine was the most commonly administered drug used in 72 patients (75,8%). Fungal infections were the most frequent oral manifestations. There was no correlation between the histological diagnosis and the risk of developing oral mucositis.
conclusionsOral manifestations are frequent in patients with hematological malignancies who are undergoing chemotherapy. Since there is a tendency for increasing cases of hematologic neoplasms annually, it is of paramount importance to know the treatments offered to these patients and the related side effects in order to prevent them and consequently decrease morbimortality.
