Oral mucositis self-management ability among cancer survivors receiving radiotherapy or chemotherapy in China: A latent profile analysis.

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 investigate the self-management status of RIOM (Radiation-induced Oral Mucositis)/CIOM (Chemotherapy-induced Oral Mucositis) among cancer survivors in China, thereby uncovering latent profiles and predictors to guide supportive care interventions. Methods: Convenience sampling was conducted. A total of 399 cancer survivors who received radiotherapy/chemotherapy at a tertiary hospital in Zibo City between January and March 2025 were selected as the study participants. Using validated scales, we assessed the self-management ability of the RIOM/CIOM, social support (SSRS), and illness acceptance (AIS). Latent profile analysis (LPA) identified heterogeneous subgroups, and subsequent logistic regression analysis examined the associated factors. Results: Among the 399 enrolled cancer survivors, LPA stratified oral mucositis (OM) self-management ability into three distinct categories: Low Level-Negative self-management type (11.03%), Medium Level-Relatively self-management type (26.32%), High Level-Autonomous self-management type (62.66%). The key modifiable factors that were significantly associated ( Conclusions: The self-management ability of cancer survivors with OM undergoing radiotherapy/chemotherapy was above average, with significant heterogeneity observed. Health care providers should implement personalized interventions tailored to the distinct self-management profiles of different patient subgroups to enhance their OM self-management capacity.
