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

purpose of reviewChronic pain is a prevalent and debilitating late effect of pediatric cancer. It is also multifaceted and requires comprehensive assessment to guide optimal treatment. While pharmacological interventions for chronic pain in this population are well summarized elsewhere, a current review of less invasive non-pharmacological interventions and assessments to guide them is needed. RECENT

findingsRecent research has found the utility of biopsychosocial assessment of pain in pediatric cancer survivors using both validated measures such as the PROMIS and brief screeners. For intervention, preliminary studies found positive outcomes for physical activity interventions and biofeedback for pain in survivors. Advances in management of chronic pain in survivors are promising, though future research should refine identification and treatment. More research is needed on comprehensive biopsychosocial pain assessments and tailoring treatment. Further, promising interventions in broad chronic pain literature such as hypnosis should be explored for pediatric cancer survivors.
