Application of comprehensive geriatric assessment in oncology nursing: A literature review on optimizing treatment decisions and patient outcomes.
Review in World journal of clinical oncology, 2025. 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
With the global population aging, the care of elderly cancer patients has become increasingly complex and significant. Comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA), a multidimensional evaluation tool, has been widely implemented in oncology nursing to enhance the precision of treatment decisions and improve patient outcomes. This review examines the application of CGA in oncology nursing, drawing on literature published between 2010 and 2024 in major databases using keywords such as "Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment" and "Oncology Nursing". It highlights how CGA contributes to optimizing treatment selection, monitoring the treatment process, and improving patients' quality of life and long-term outcomes. CGA provides a comprehensive evaluation of elderly cancer patients, including physical, psychological, and social aspects, enabling the identification of high-risk patients and reducing treatment-related side effects and complications. It also offers a critical foundation for developing personalized care plans. The article discusses various practical examples of CGA implementation across different countries and regions, including multidisciplinary collaborative models in France, the United States, and Australia, demonstrating CGA's flexible application in diverse healthcare settings. Although significant progress has been made in applying CGA in oncology nursing, numerous challenges remain in its implementation, such as resource limitations and insufficient personnel training. Future research will focus on integrating CGA with emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence and precision medicine, to further improve the quality of care and treatment outcomes for elderly cancer patients. By summarizing the current status and challenges of CGA in oncology nursing, this review provides guidance for future research and clinical practice, emphasizing the importance of advancing CGA application to meet the growing demands of elderly oncology care.
