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

purposeDetermine the association of food group and micronutrient intake with chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) among survivors of cancer.

methodsIn this cross-sectional study, participants completed the PRO-CTACE™ numbness and tingling severity item and VioScreen™ Research Food Frequency Questionnaire to determine CIPN status and dietary intake, respectively. Separate covariate-adjusted linear, logistic, and ordered logistic regression models were used to calculate the mean food group and micronutrient amounts and the associations with CIPN status and severity. As a secondary analysis of prior research that was not powered to detect these associations, we considered p ≤ 0.10 as an indicator of relevance for future study.

resultsA total of 136 participants completed the surveys and questionnaires. Participants with greater daily intake of refined grains (OR = 2.05; 95% CI, 1.22, 3.46) and less intake of tomatoes (OR = 0.10; 95% CI, 0.10, 1.14), fish (OR = 0.21; 95% CI, 0.06, 0.75), eggs (OR = 0.06; 95% CI, 0.01, 0.34), and selenium (OR = 0.96; 95% CI, 0.92, 1.00) were associated with increased odds of having CIPN. The odds of experiencing worse CIPN severity increased with each additional serving of refined grains (OR = 1.66; 95% CI, 1.11, 2.48) and decreased with each extra serving of poultry (OR = 0.58; 95% CI, 0.31, 1.08), fish (OR = 0.18; 95% CI, 0.05, 0.61), egg (OR = 0.08; 95% CI, 0.02, 0.39), legumes (OR = 0.04; 95% CI, 0.00, 1.49), and selenium (OR = 0.96; 95% CI, 0.93, 1.35).

conclusionThere are meaningful intake differences between participants with and without CIPN. Further research is needed to establish a dietary intervention using the findings in a larger population.
