Improve the management of cancer-related cognitive impairment in clinical settings: a European Delphi study.
Article in Journal of cancer survivorship : research and practice, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07755839 (CanCOG® - Cognitive Rehabilitation in Cancer), which is not on this map. Cited by 24 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
purposeCancer-related cognitive impairment (CRCI) is under-addressed by healthcare professionals owing to a lack of clinical management guidelines. This European Delphi study proposes recommendations to healthcare professionals for the management of CRCI in patients with non-central nervous system (non-CNS) cancers.
methodsTwenty-two recommendations were developed based on a literature review and authors' clinical experience, split into three categories: screening, cognitive assessment, intervention. The survey included European professionals, experts in CRCI. The Delphi method was used: experts rated the clinical relevancy of recommendations on a 9-point Likert scale in three rounds. A recommendation was accepted if all votes were between 7 and 9. Recommendations not accepted in round 1 and round 2 were deleted, or modified and rated in round 3.
resultsEighteen professionals (psychologists, physicians, researchers) voted and accepted 15 recommendations. Experts recommended the systematic screening of CRCI, followed by a short objective cognitive assessment, if complaints screened. A comprehensive evaluation is recommended if CRCI persists 6 months post-treatment. Cognitive rehabilitation, physical activity, meditative-movement therapy, and multimodal intervention should be offered. Recommendations about frequency and duration of interventions, the professional to administer cognitive rehabilitation and the use of meditation and cognitive training without psychoeducation were not accepted.
conclusionsThis survey provides 15 recommendations to assist healthcare professionals in detecting, assessing and offering interventions for CRCI. IMPLICATIONS FOR CANCER SURVIVORS: These recommendations should be included in supportive care to help healthcare professionals to detect CRCI and propose the best available intervention for patients with cognitive complaints. Developing CRCI management in clinical settings would improve patients' quality of life.
