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

backgroundLittle research is available comparing differences in cancer risk perceptions between cancer survivors and family members at risk for hereditary breast/ovarian cancer.

methodsQualitative focus groups with survivor-female relative dyads (N = 39) were conducted.

resultsImportant differences exist between the concerns of survivors and family members relevant to their cancer risk. Survivors focused on their own concerns from a personal perspective, whereas family members focused on the survivors' health and tended to suppress their own fears of cancer. Specific recommendations for inclusion of family members in cancer risk education are provided.

conclusionsAddressing family member differences is critical to tailor specific risk information inclusive of the entire family.
