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: To evaluate the associations of obesity and cancer-related fatigue (CRF) among breast cancer survivors, and the impact of their co-occurrence on physical function. Methods: In a nationwide randomized clinical trial, we assessed body mass index (BMI; kg/m Results: Among 456 participants with a breast cancer diagnosis (stage I-IIIC, mean age 55.9 years, 23.5 months post first-treatment, 86% white), 43.9% have obesity (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m Discussion: Overweight/obesity and CRF are highly prevalent among breast cancer survivors. Survivors with obesity experience worse CRF compared to those with normal weight. Survivors with co-occurring overweight/obesity and severe CRF experience worse cardiorespiratory function, and this persists post-diagnosis. Given the long-term detrimental impact of these conditions on QOL and survival, these findings underscore the need for targeted interventions.
