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
Objective: This study aimed to translate the Escala de Impactos da Mucosite Oral em Pacientes Oncológicos (EIMOPO) into Chinese and to assess the psychometric properties of the cross-culturally adapted version, thereby ensuring its reliability and validity. Methods: A total of 473 patients with cancer who developed oral mucositis following radiotherapy/chemotherapy were recruited from two Grade A tertiary hospitals in Shandong Province between December 2024 and April 2025 using convenience sampling, with the sample size determined based on Kendall's estimation method. The original EIMOPO scale was translated and culturally adapted following Brislin' s guidelines. Validity was evaluated through item analysis and structural validity, while reliability was assessed using internal consistency test, test-retest reliability analysis and the split-half reliability. Data analyses were performed with SPSS and AMOS. Results: The Chinese version of the 21-item scale exhibited strong psychometric properties. Exploratory factor analysis identified a four-factor structure, accounting for 66.883% of the total variance. Confirmatory factor analysis further supported the model, demonstrating excellent fit: Conclusions: The Chinese version of the EIMOPO exhibits robust psychometric properties, establishing it as a reliable and appropriate instrument for assessing quality of life related with radiotherapy/chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis in patients with cancer within the Chinese cultural context.
