Assessing Etoposide and Cyclophosphamide Contamination and Current Cleaning Practices in Patient Bathrooms.
Article in Clinical journal of oncology nursing, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundAntineoplastic drug (AD) exposure presents severe risks to healthcare workers. Previous studies have demonstrated that patient bathrooms are highly contaminated and have led to concern for excreta as a source of environmental contamination with ADs.
objectivesThis study assessed AD contamination and current cleaning practices to remove AD surface contamination in patient bathrooms.
methodsThree surfaces in the bathrooms of patients who had received etoposide and/or cyclophosphamide were sampled and analyzed for contamination at three time points. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry was used for analysis. Interviews and observations of daily and discharge cleaning were conducted to understand cleaning practices.
findingsA significant reduction in etoposide contamination on toilets and floors was observed following discharge cleaning; however, no significant reduction was observed on walls for either AD or on floors for cyclophosphamide.
