A qualitative study about cancer outpatients' experiences with selective taste control of bread as a self-care intervention.
Article in Nursing open, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
aimAlterations in taste are distressing side effects for cancer patients receiving chemotherapy. The Center for Gastrology (Belgium) developed a self-care intervention based on taste control. This intervention contains an assessment of the individual taste and food hedonics. It provides recipes based on the individual assessed hedonics profile, so patients can self-prepare personalized meals. This study aims to describe the experiences of oncologic patients with the home baking of personalized bread.
designA qualitative, descriptive design with individual semi-structured interviews was used.
methodsIn August 2018, eleven face-to-face interviews were conducted until data saturation.
resultsThe analysis of the interviews revealed five major themes: "Stepping out of your role," "Having something positive to do," "gaining insight," "receiving recognition" and "practical limitations."
