1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Purpose: To assess the level of financial toxicity (FT) experienced by carers of children with cancer in Western China, identify associated factors. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted at a large tertiary hospital ( Results: The mean COST-PROM score was 12.24 (SD = 8.44), indicating moderate FT. Elevated FT demonstrated significant correlations with heightened anxiety ( Conclusion: Carers in this sample experience moderate FT, which is strongly linked to economic hardship, and diminished social support (particularly from friends). Interventions should address modifiable factors like social support, anxiety, depression, alongside financial navigation and psychological support services.
