Trial report in Nursing open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03881137 (Improving Function and Quality of Life for Older Cancer Patients Receiving Radiotherapy, a Randomized Controlled Pilot Study), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.

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.

Abstract

aimsTo describe: (i) Experiences of older patients with cancer after receiving an intervention based on geriatric assessment with management. (ii) Experiences of cancer nurses in municipal health care from implementing an intervention based on geriatric assessment with management and their perspectives on the intervention.

designA qualitative, descriptive interview study reported according to COREQ.

methodsThe sample comprises five men and three women with cancer, mean age 75 years, and 11 female cancer nurses. Data collection was performed as individual patient interviews, and individual and small group interviews with cancer nurses. Inductive, thematic analysis was performed.

resultsThree main themes were generated: Systematic approach, Patient-centeredness and Regular and professional contact. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: Participants did not review transcripts, participate in analysis, or review results. This was not deemed appropriate, as all interviews were analysed as a whole. User representatives participated in the planning and conducting of the intervention study and implementation procedures.
