Multi-theory model-based exercise for cognition, physical fitness, and quality of life in patients with lymphoma during chemotherapy: a randomized controlled trial.
Article in Journal of cancer survivorship : research and practice, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeTo evaluate the effects of a multi-theory model (MTM)-based exercise program on cognitive function, physical fitness, and quality of life among blood cancer survivors.
methodsIn this randomized controlled trial, 86 adults with lymphoma were recruited from a specialized oncology hospital in Fujian, southeastern China, and randomly assigned to an intervention or usual-care control group. The intervention group received an MTM-based exercise program plus usual care; controls received usual care alone. Outcomes were assessed at baseline (T0), immediately post-intervention (T1), and 4 weeks post-intervention (T2).
resultsOf 43 participants allocated to the intervention group, 38 completed the program (retention, 88.4%); mean adherence was 79.0%. Compared with usual care, the MTM-based exercise program significantly improved subjective cognitive function, physical fitness, and quality of life at T1 and T2 (all P < 0.001). Cognitive function improved from T0 to T1 (P < 0.001) and was maintained at T2, with no further significant change from T1 to T2 (P = 0.074). Physical fitness and quality of life improved from T0 to T1 and remained significantly higher at T2, compared with baseline (T0) (all P < 0.001).
conclusionsA MTM-based exercise program produced sustained short-term improvements in cognitive, physical, and quality-of-life outcomes among blood cancer survivors.
