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

Background: Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common adverse effect in cancer patients, yet studies have reported inconsistent incidence and influencing factors for CIPN. This study aims to systematically evaluate the incidence and influencing factors of CIPN in cancer patients. Methods: The search databases included PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science, focusing on CIPN incidence and influencing factors in cancer patients up to 10 June, 2025. A meta-analysis of incidence and influencing factors was performed separately by Stata 17.0 software. Results: 23 studies involving a sample size of 15,090 cases were included, and 16 influencing factors were identified. The incidence of CIPN in cancer patients was 56% (95% CI: 46-66%, Conclusion: The results show that the incidence of CIPN in cancer patients is at a high level, and its influencing factors are varied and complex. This suggests that clinicians should screen for CIPN early to improve clinical outcomes and enhance the quality of life and survival for cancer patients.
