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 identify latent characteristics of eating-related distress (ERD) in patients with advanced cancer receiving chemotherapy, explore influencing factors, and examine associations between ERD profiles and spiritual well-being (SWB). Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted between February and June 2025 in three tertiary hospitals in Southwest China, involving 345 patients with advanced cancer receiving chemotherapy. Data were collected using the Demographic Information Questionnaire, the Questionnaire for ERD among Patients with Advanced Cancer, the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy Spiritual Well-being Scale, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, and the Functional Assessment of Anorexia/Cachexia Therapy Anorexia/Cachexia Subscale. Descriptive statistics, latent profile analysis, univariate analysis, and multivariate logistic regression were used to identify ERD characteristics and influencing factors. Multiple linear regression assessed associations between ERD profiles and SWB. Results: ERD classified into three latent profiles: "Low ERD Group" (32.7%), "Moderate ERD Group" (20.3%), and "High ERD Group" (47.0%). Significant differences were observed among groups in terms of gender, education level, religious belief, tumor metastasis, disease duration, anxiety and depression, and cancer-related anorexia ( Conclusions: Patients with advanced cancer receiving chemotherapy exhibit heterogeneity in ERD, influenced by sociodemographic, clinical, and psychological factors. SWB varied significantly across ERD profiles. Tailored nutritional, psychological, and spiritual interventions are needed to improve well-being and quality of life.
