Improvement in resiliency factors among adolescents with neurofibromatosis who participate in a virtual mind-body group program.
Trial report in Journal of neuro-oncology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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.

9 citing papers in PubMed, 1 synthesis or guideline pooled it, 18 citations in OpenAlex.

Abstract
purposeTo examine effects of a virtual mind-body group for adolescents with neurofibromatoses (NF1 and NF2; Resilient Youth with Neurofibromatosis; RY-NF) on multiple resiliency factors against a health education attention control (Health Education for Youth with Neurofibromatosis; HE-NF) using data from a randomized controlled trial. Specifically, our research question was whether adolescents randomized to the RY-NF (versus the HE-NF) would have greater improvements in resiliency factors at post-intervention and whether these gains would be maintained at 6-month follow-up.
methodsAdolescents with NF (n = 51; M age 12-17) were randomly assigned to RY-NF (n = 27) or HE-NF (n = 24). Resiliency factors (mindfulness, coping, gratitude, optimism, and social support) were collected at baseline, post-intervention (88%), and 6-month follow-up (82%).
resultsParticipation in the RY-NF was associated with greater pre-to-post improvements in gratitude (M
conclusionsParticipation in the RY-NF resulted in sustained improvement in several resiliency factors. Promoting resiliency may help adolescents successfully navigate challenges associated with NF.
