Key inclusion criteria

We searched three online databases: PubMed, CINAHL, and Web of Science. Search limits included peer-reviewed studies, published in English, by October 1st, 2021. The commencing year limit was not set, and all research articles were traced back.

The inclusion criterion for the present review was the prospective study principally investigated the effects of chemotherapy on cognition for adults with cancer. However, studies that investigated other cancer treatments separately from chemotherapy were included if they had a chemotherapy treatment group alone.

Key exclusion criteria

The exclusion criteria for our study are as follows: (1) no abstract (2) languages other than English (3) review article, interventional trial, and case study (4) experiments with animals (5) primary brain tumor or brain metastasis (6) unclear distinction between hormone therapy and radiation therapy (7) having any other reason that the reviewer finds to be an obvious content discrepancy. As an example of this content inconsistency, in order to examine the effect of chemotherapy treatment on cognitive impairment more purely, we excluded cases in which the main topic of the previous study was considered by the reviewers to be strongly influenced by depression, anxiety, fatigue, or anemia.

Results

Sixty-four prospective studies were included after checking for eligibility. The neuropsychological tests (NPTs) were divided into seven main cognitive domains. The specific mental functions were often used in the order of memory, attention, higher-level cognitive functions, and psychomotor functions. Perceptual functions were used less frequently. The Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Cognitive function (FACT-Cog) was a shared consensus tool among the patient-reported outcomes (PROs).

Baseline Characteristics

The inclusion criteria: the studies must have principally investigated the effects of chemotherapy on cognition in adults with cancer.
The exclusion criteria for our study were as follows: (1) no abstract, (2) languages other than English, (3) review article, interventional trial, and case study, (4) experiments with animals, (5) primary brain tumor or brain metastasis, (6) unclear distinction between hormonal therapy and radiotherapy, (7) having any other reason that the reviewer finds to be an obvious content discrepancy. An example of this content inconsistency is when there is a claim to an exclusive examination of the effect of chemotherapy treatment on cognitive impairment, but reviewers have considered the impairment to be strongly influenced by depression, anxiety, fatigue, or anemia.

Participant flow

The study followed the recommendations made by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews. We searched the following three databases through October 2021: PubMed, CINAHL, and Web of Science. Prospective longitudinal or cross-sectional studies were selected to determine CICI-specific assessment tools for adult cancer survivors.
