The influencing factors of cancer-related fatigue in Chinese patients with myelodysplastic syndrome: A cross-sectional study.

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
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate Cancer-related fatigue (CRF) prevalence in Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and identify contributing factors. The goal was to aid in developing interventions to alleviate CRF, and refine clinical nursing practices. Methods: A cross-section study was conducted from June 2023 to April 2024, recruiting 144 MDS patients from a Shanghai hospital. Surveys and scales were used to assess fatigue, insomnia, caregiving burden, and nutritional status. Statistical analyses, including t-tests, ANOVA, correlation, and regression, were performed to identify CRF influencers. Results: The study revealed that the mean CRF score among patients with MDS was 28.63 ± 9.73, with a median score of 30 (IQR 22-35), indicating moderate CRF levels. CRF showed positive correlations with anxiety/depression, insomnia, nutritional status, and number of chemotherapies, while demonstrating a negative correlation with family support. Multivariate analysis identified age, chemotherapy regimen, Revised International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-R) risk category, anxiety/depression, and nutritional status as significant predictors of CRF. Conclusions: The study identified moderate CRF levels in patients with MDS, with severity influenced by age, IPSS-R risk category, chemotherapy regimen, anxiety/depression, and nutritional status. Multivariate analysis identified anxiety/depression and nutritional status as key contributing factors. These findings highlight the need for further research into the pathogenesis of MDS-associated CRF, particularly focusing on comprehensive assessment and targeted management of anxiety/depression and nutritional status in this patient population.
