School Bullying of Childhood Leukemia Survivors.
Article in Psycho-oncology, 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
backgroundWith improving childhood cancer cure rates, there is a growing focus on the long-term health and well-being of survivors. School reintegration is crucial for their rehabilitation and psychosocial adaptation, yet little is known about school violence and bullying faced by cancer survivors upon their return.
aimsThis study aimed to investigate the prevalence and forms of school bullying against childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) survivors, identifying risk and protective factors.
methodsALL survivors aged 6-18 years were assessed through interviews and questionnaires. A paired comparison group of healthy students was recruited from their classrooms.
resultsThe study included 70 students from grades 6-12 (mean age 14.9 ± 1.82 years), comprising 35 ALL survivors and a paired comparison group. ALL survivors endured more physical (M = 1.64, SD = 1.00) and relational bullying (M = 1.50, SD = 1.04) than their healthy classmates (M = 0.90, SD = 0.58; M = 0.90, SD = 0.51 respectively), while facing similar verbal bullying levels (M = 1.71, SD = 0.99 vs. M = 1.38, SD = 0.69). However, survivors reported less cyberbullying (M = 0.45, SD = 0.36) and severe bullying (M = 0.41, SD = 0.05) than their healthy classmates (M = 1.49, SD = 0.48; M = 0.66, SD = 0.53 respectively). Survivors who returned to a different school cohort post-remission faced higher bullying risks than those who rejoined their original cohort (-0.79 < β < -0.92; p < 0.001). Physical disfigurements following cancer treatment were a risk factor for victimization only among those who returned to their original cohort.
conclusionsThe findings highlight the unique challenges faced by childhood leukemia survivors in school reintegration after cancer therapy, emphasizing the significant effect of the school cohort environment on their bullying experiences.
