Prevalence and Psychobiological Correlates of Depression Among Breast Cancer Patients.
Review in Indian journal of surgical oncology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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.

Abstract
The diagnosis of breast cancer (BC) is associated with psychological stress. Various factors that contribute to psychological reactions are from the diagnosis of cancer to long uncertain treatment. A patient develops many fears in their mind starting after the diagnosis of cancer. Fear of cancer being an incurable disease, changes in body image, fear of death, separation from loved ones, and fear of pain all contribute to psychological disorders and most common disorders in cancer patients are mood, anxiety, depression, and sexual functional disorders. Research studies focus more on cancer. Only a few studies emphasized the coexistence of stress, depression, and the abilities of the individual to cope with such stressors. Depression is a comorbid illness to cancer, and if neglected, it may complicate the treatment of both illnesses, which will result in poor adherence to treatment and less desirable outcome of both the illnesses. Studies from this perspective can have meaningful implications, and can address both areas. Every clinician involved in the care of BC should also plan assessment of stress and depression and arrange medical treatment or coping interventions if symptoms are present. This review article aims to find the prevalence and psychobiological correlates of depressive disorder and its effect on mortality in women diagnosed with BC.
