Application of digital health interventions in the management of economic toxicity in cancer patients: a scoping review.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 systematically reviews the current application of digital health interventions in cancer patients, clarifies their implementation characteristics and intervention effects in managing economic toxicity, and provides a reference for intervention programs to reduce the economic toxicity of patients. Methods: Relevant studies were systematically retrieved from PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Embase, CINAHL, CNKI, CBM, WanFang Database, and VIP Database from their inception to February 6, 2026. Data from the included literature were extracted and analyzed. Results: A total of 22 studies were included. Digital health technologies are applicable to multiple stages of cancer patient diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation. Among these, remote financial navigation or consultation is the most commonly used intervention method. Existing research has shown positive results in improving cost communication skills, facilitating financial assistance, and enhancing intervention feasibility, but evidence regarding improvements in economic toxicity scales and the alleviation of long-term financial difficulties exhibits some heterogeneity. Conclusion: Digital health technologies, with their high accessibility, scalability, and ease of remote access and follow-up, offer unique advantages in managing the economic toxicity of cancer patients. Current research in this field has gradually shifted from single-stage interventions to comprehensive intervention pathways. Future research should focus on the dynamic evolution of economic toxicity at different stages of diagnosis and treatment, promote the standardization of intervention procedures and outcome evaluations, and develop personalized digital intervention strategies to mitigate the economic toxicity of cancer patients.
