“…Diagnosis, assessment, and management of CIPN is challenging. Key patient characteristics increasing the risk of CIPN (including PN severity and long-duration PN), have been identified (summarised in Table 1), including obesity (Bao et al, 2016;Bandos et al, 2018)/high body mass index (BMI) (Bao et al, 2016;Hiramoto et al, 2022), and advanced age (Tanabe et al, 2013;Schneider et al, 2015;Bao et al, 2016;Hershman et al, 2016;Tanabe et al, 2017;Bandos et al, 2018;Miaskowski et al, 2018;Molassiotis et al, 2019;Sánchez-Barroso et al, 2019;Hiramoto et al, 2022;Rattanakrong et al, 2022), although age has been contested as an independent risk factor (Eckhoff et al, 2015b;Johnson et al, 2015;Barginear et al, 2019;Sánchez-Barroso et al, 2019;Valentine, 2020). Multimorbidity/co-morbidity (Loprinzi et al, 2007;Lavoie Smith et al, 2011;Reeves et al, 2012;Tanabe et al, 2013;de la Morena Barrio et al, 2015;Bao et al, 2016;Fernandes et al, 2016;Hershman et al, 2016;Molassiotis et al, 2019) is a further risk factor.…”
