One step at a time: self-management and transitions among women with ovarian cancer.
Article in Oncology nursing forum, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06552494 (Developing and Testing an Integrated mHealth Learning Program for Gynecological Cancer), which is not on this map. Cited by 16 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.

Abstract
PURPOSE/
objectivesTo describe experiences of self-management and transitioning among women with ovarian cancer. RESEARCH APPROACH: Interpretive description.
settingParticipants' homes.
participantsPurposive sample of 10 women with ovarian cancer. METHODOLOGIC APPROACH: Individual interviews about women's self-management and transition experiences. MAIN RESEARCH VARIABLES: Self-management, transitions, and ovarian cancer.
findingsParticipants self-managed to increase their sense of control and to self-advocate. They managed their care one step at a time to prevent becoming overwhelmed. Common transitions were diagnosis, surgery and recovery, starting chemotherapy, managing symptoms, and recurrence. Transitions were challenging, even if previously experienced, and influenced the ability and willingness of women to self-manage. Barriers and facilitators to self-management were identified.
conclusionsThe approach to self-management of one step at a time is somewhat illusory, as women face multiple transitions simultaneously. The short trajectory of ovarian cancer leaves little time between transitions and an awareness of mortality. Women are forced to confront goals of care quickly, which may affect their ability to self-manage.
interpretationWomen with ovarian cancer need clinical and social support to prioritize and manage transitions. Introducing palliative care shortly after diagnosis could facilitate women's anticipation of and adjustment to transitions.
