Mapping evidence on educational interventions for adolescents with cancer: a scoping review protocol.
Article in BMJ open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionAdolescents diagnosed with cancer face unique challenges that can significantly impact their physical, emotional and social well-being. Educational interventions are essential in providing these young patients with the knowledge and skills necessary to navigate their cancer journey effectively. This scoping review aims to map the existing evidence on educational interventions tailored for adolescents with cancer, identifying gaps in the literature and informing future research and practice. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: The review will follow a systematic scoping review as outlined by the Joanna Briggs Institute. A preliminary search was conducted in June 2024 with the PubMed database. This will be followed by a comprehensive search strategy across multiple databases, including PubMed, SCOPUS, WoS, PsycINFO, GIM and CINAHL, to identify relevant literature published in English. All types of educational interventions targeting adolescents with cancer will be included, while studies focusing on non-cancer populations or published in non-English languages will be excluded. Data extraction will be conducted by two independent reviewers using a standardised tool, and qualitative content analysis will be performed to summarise the findings. The results will be presented in tables and figures, adhering to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses: Extension for Scoping Reviews guidelines. This scoping review has been registered with Open Science Framework (https://osf.io/7p93v). ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: As this scoping review will use secondary data from published literature, ethical approval is not required. The findings will be disseminated through peer-reviewed publications, conference presentations and stakeholder engagement.
