Positive Cancer Experiences: Perspectives From Cancer Survivors.
Article in Journal of patient experience, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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.
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
The purpose was to review the perspectives of cancer survivors about what they perceive constitutes positive cancer experiences. A national survey was conducted in collaboration with 10 Canadian provinces to identify experiences and unmet needs for cancer survivors between 1 and 3 years of posttreatment. The survey included open-ended questions designed to allow the respondents to add topics and details of importance. This publication presents the analysis of quantitative data and open-ended questions regarding cancer survivors' perspectives about positive experiences and gaps in care during their cancer journey. Of the 13 534 unique adult survey respondents, 7794 (57.6%) responded to the positive experiences question and 6434 (47.5%) to the question about gaps in care. Elements of positive experiences included the compassionate health care workers, maintaining a positive outlook and the support of family and friends. Gaps in care included a lack of access to services, information, and support. Respondents were able to identify positive aspects of their cancer experiences and where improvements were needed. These findings assist in determining how health care professionals can address the needs of cancer patients based on what survivors have identified as helpful.
