The decision-related psychosocial concerns of men with localised prostate cancer: targets for intervention and research.
Review in World journal of urology, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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.
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
purposeTo describe decision-related psychosocial issues relevant for men with clinically localised prostate cancer.
methodsSearches were conducted across three electronic databases to search the health and psychological literature for articles examining decision-related psychosocial issues for men with localised prostate cancer and their partners. Medline, PsycINFO and CINAHL databases were examined for the period from 1990 to December 2007.
resultsMost men with localised prostate cancer want active involvement in decision-making. Difficulty in making the decision is common and decision-related distress may persist over time. Cancer-specific psychological distress (such as fear of recurrence but not overall anxiety) appears to be related to changes in PSA levels; and this distress influences treatment pathways. Decision support interventions are acceptable to men, improve knowledge and might reduce decision and cancer-related distress. However, the quality of intervention studies to date is low.
conclusionClinicians should seek to involve men and their partners in treatment decision making concurrent with decision and psychological support. There is a need for high quality randomised control trials to identify the optimal approach to decision support for men with clinically localised prostate cancer.
