Patient and provider perceptions of Internet-delivered cognitive behavior therapy for recent cancer survivors.
Article in Supportive care in cancer : official journal of the Multinational Association of Supportive Care in Cancer, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
purposeAlthough most cancer survivors adjust well, a subset experiences clinical levels of anxiety and depression following cancer treatment. Internet-delivered cognitive behavior therapy (iCBT) is a promising intervention for symptoms of anxiety and depression among survivors; however, patient and provider perceptions of iCBT have not been examined.
methodsWe employed an exploratory qualitative method and conducted semi-structured interviews with 13 cancer survivors and 10 providers to examine iCBT strengths and weaknesses, areas for improvement, and perceived barriers to program completion. A thematic content analysis approach was used to analyze the data.
resultsThe majority of survivors liked the flexible, convenient, and private nature of the program. Many viewed the program as helping them feel less alone following cancer treatment. Areas of improvement included suggestions of additional information regarding cancer treatment side effects. Barriers to completing the program were identified by a minority of survivors and included finding time to complete the program and current symptoms. Providers liked the program's accessibility and its ability to provide support to patients after cancer treatment. All providers perceived the program as useful in their current work with survivors. Concerns around the fit of the program (e.g., for particular patients) were expressed by a minority of providers.
conclusionsResults provide additional evidence for the acceptability of an iCBT program among recent cancer survivors and providers in oncology settings. The current study highlights the value of research exploring iCBT for cancer survivors and provides insights for other groups considering Internet-delivered care for survivors.
