Finding 'the inner drive' for a rehabilitation process: a small-scale qualitative investigation among male patients with primary glioma.
Article in BMJ open, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02221986 (Interdisciplinary Rehabilitation of Patients With Glioma During Anti-cancer Treatment), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
objectiveBrain tumours are relatively rare but hold a significant place in cancer rehabilitation due to their pronounced disabling capacity to promote physical, cognitive and psychosocial sequelae. This small-scale qualitative study used coping and motivational theories to gain understanding and knowledge of patients' experience of being diagnosed with a severe disease and of their view of a rehabilitation process.
designQualitative interview study.
settingOdense University Hospital, Denmark. INFORMANTS: Five patients (men, aged 30-79 years) with primary glioma who had participated in a rehabilitation intervention.
methodsSemi-structured interviews were conducted. The phenomenological interpretive analysis was used to analyse the interviews.
resultsThe analysis revealed three main themes: (1) coping with a new life situation, (2) motivating and maintaining elements and (3) experience of the benefit of the rehabilitation programme.
conclusionThe study concluded that interviewed informants use problem-solving coping strategies, which make them more active in their health behaviour. However, passive and emotion-focused strategies related to confronting diagnosis may be used in some cases. The motivational aspect is multifaceted. Personal and interpersonal elements alongside a competitive setting are crucial to self-efficacy and benefit. The intervention's impact on health-related quality of life also has the potential to increase patients' resources to manage their situation. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT02221986.
