This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the dose-response relationship between body mass index (BMI) and the risk of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) in cancer patients. We conducted a dose-response meta-analysis of 10 studies involving 6,841 cancer patients. Studies reporting BMI and...
