A Review on the Multidisciplinary Approach for Cancer Management in the Eastern Mediterranean Region: A Focus on Nutritional, Lifestyle and Supportive Care.
Review in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Cancer is one of the leading causes of global morbidity and mortality and one of the most challenging global health conditions, impacting the lives of millions every year. The Eastern Mediterranean Region (EMR) is not on track to achieve the sustainable development goal (SDG) target 3.4 which aims to reduce premature mortality (i.e., before the age of 70 years) for non-communicable diseases (NCDs), including cancer, by a third by year 2030; instead, it is projected that the EMR will experience the least progress towards achieving this target. This review therefore highlights the importance of context-specific cancer management, with a focus on nutritional, lifestyle and supportive care, in the EMR. A comprehensive literature search was conducted using electronic databases, including PubMed, Scopus and Google Scholar, as well as the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics and key oncology institutes. Nutritional and lifestyle management is a fundamental aspect of cancer care which should be context-specific, achievable and individualized to minimize symptoms and side effects, while maximizing benefits and better addressing the needs of the patients with cancer. A multidisciplinary approach that integrates medical, nutritional, psychological and palliative care is essential to address this growing issue effectively. Cancer care and management requires coordinated efforts from policymakers, healthcare providers and communities to implement evidence-based interventions and promote cancer awareness.
