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.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundOne-third of all lung cancer cases globally are reported in China. This study evaluated the symptom management efficacy of an electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePRO)-based intervention for postoperative symptoms like pain and psychological distress after lung cancer surgery.

methodsWe included lung cancer surgery patients (April 2022-October 2023; age, 18-75 years) with ECOG scores of 0-2 and expected survival of >6 months and randomized them into control and intervention groups. The latter completed MDASI-LC and QLQ-C30 questionnaires, wherein high symptom scores prompted treatment recommendations; the former received routine care. Changes in symptom scores, daily function, and quality of life were evaluated over 12 weeks and 1 year through surveys and interviews for ePRO-based symptom management efficacy assessments.

resultsHerein, 355 participants comprised intervention (n = 182) and control groups (n = 173). At 12 weeks, the former had significantly lower symptoms threshold [0 (0-1) vs. 1 (0-3)], lower symptom scores [adjusted mean difference, -0.527 (95% CI: -0.788 to -0.266)], and higher QOL scores (emotional function: 2.908; 95% CI: 0.600-5.216, P = 0.014; global health: 6.775; 95% CI: 3.967-9.583).

conclusionsePRO-based collaborative management effectively lessened postoperative burden and improved QOL beyond 6 months.
