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: To cross-sectionally investigate the correlation of cancer-related fatigue (CRF) with quality of life (QoL) and physical fitness of breast carcinoma (BC) patients during chemotherapy, so as to provide reference and guidance for the future clinical development of better medical services for BC patients during chemotherapy. Methods: From February 2023 to July 2023, 400 BC patients treated at the Breast Surgery Department of the Fujian Cancer Hospital were selected as the research subjects. Physical fitness-associated indicators were investigated, including body composition, muscle function, cardiopulmonary function, and the scores of CRF Scale, QoL Questionnaire, and Exercise Self-Efficacy Scale were investigated. Further analysis was conducted on the differences in physical fitness between neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) and postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy (POAC), as well as between patients with and without exercise habits. Results: Electrocardiogram showed that 244 (61.00% ) had normal heart rhythm, but 29 (7.25%) still developed abnormal cardiac function. A greater number of patients receiving NACT showed low HDL-C than those undergoing POAC (P< 0 .0 5 ). In patients with exercise habits, there was a larger proportion of reduced hemoglobin (Hb) compared with those without exercise habits, with higher QoL questionnaire scores (P< 0.05). Conclusions: CRF during chemotherapy was evident in BC patients. Among them, patients undergoing NACT show lower HDL-C levels, while those with exercise habits have lower Hb and higher QoL scores.
