The biology of stress in cancer: Applying the biobehavioral framework to adolescent and young adult oncology research.
Article in Brain, behavior, & immunity - health, 2021. 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 stress response influences the development and trajectory of cancer through a host of complex neuroimmune mechanisms. Basic, translational, and clinical research has elucidated these biobehavioral connections and offers a new paradigm for scientific investigation and patient care. Using a biobehavioral approach could offer new diagnostic and therapeutic opportunities in oncology, and this approach will be particularly impactful for adolescent and young adult (AYA) patients with cancer. To date, nearly all biobehavioral oncology research has been done in the adult population. And yet, AYAs have traditionally poorer mental health and cancer-related outcomes, and thus represent a population that could benefit from parallel psychosocial and biomedical intervention. Future biobehavioral work in oncology should focus on the AYA population, integrating new cancer therapies and technology into the next generation of research.
