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
purposeThis study aimed to analyze the experience of quality of life for urological cancer survivors.
methodsThis is a qualitative narrative research based on the experience-centered approach. Twenty-one semi-structured face-to-face interviews were conducted with 12 survivors of urological cancer at different survival seasons. Participants were recruited from the convenience sampling. The thematic analysis approach was used to analyze the data. The findings are presented as narrative syntheses. The standards for reporting qualitative research (SPQR) were used in this study.
resultsTwo narrative syntheses were constructed: (1) Rupture in the different dimensions of QoL; and (2) QoL: Searching for a harmonious survival, each presenting their respective sub-themes. After the rupture in the different dimensions of QoL, the survivors resigned themselves and searched for a harmonious survival despite the physical, social, and psychological changes imposed by cancer treatments. Survivors achieved a new meaning of QoL with the support of family, hope, and spirituality.
conclusionsThe results highlight the changes experienced by survivors in different dimensions of QoL and the search for harmonious survival. Based on QoL experience reported in this study, health professionals can plan survival care and interventions that mitigate the consequences of treatment on QoL.
