1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeThe self-care concept is a complicated and multi-dimensional phenomenon. There are different opinions about self-care needs; therefore, this study was conducted to clarify the self-care needs of the off-therapy childhood cancer survivors based on the hybrid model. PATIENTS AND

methodsThere are three phases in the hybrid model including literature review, fieldwork, and final analysis. At the theoretical phase, 119 articles in databases were evaluated without time limits up to August 2019. At the fieldwork phase, 19 participants were selected with purposive sampling and interviewed through unstructured interviews. Then, the data were analyzed by qualitative content analysis approach. In the final phase, the overall analysis of the two previous phases was carried out and the ultimate definition of self-care needs was presented with the integration of the results of two previous phases.

resultsTheoretical results showed that self-care needs are those that need to be performed by off therapy childhood cancer in everyday life in order to maintain health and well-being through the practice of healthy behaviors and activities. Also, fieldwork results indicated that self-care needs are increased due to the physical, mental, and social vulnerability of the disease. Following that, the need for protective self-care behaviors to prevent against physical and psychosocial side effects arises. If the patients are unable to implement protective behaviors, the need for support from others is created. Therefore, by synthesizing the findings of literature review and fieldwork, self-care needs are two-dimensional concept: (1) need for changing in behavior to protect themselves against physical and psychosocial distress and (2) need for supporting to implement care.

conclusionTaking into account the self-care needs, healthcare providers can support childhood cancer survivors in gaining and maintaining independency in self-care. On the other hand, the results of this study by creating a basic knowledge in the field of self-care needs can be used in the development of policy and standards of care to meet the needs of this group.
