Comparing Fatigue, Loneliness, Daytime Sleepiness, and Stress in Younger and Older Breast Cancer Survivors: A Cross-Sectional Analysis.

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
backgroundBreast cancer treatment can negatively affect psychosocial outcomes for breast cancer survivors (BCS), but these outcomes present differently for younger and older survivors.
objectivesThe objective of this study was to compare psychosocial outcomes between younger and older BCS and identify predictors of loneliness in younger BCS.
methodsThis cross-sectional descriptive study of 90 BCS evaluated data on sociodemographic and clinical characteristics and self-reported measures of psychosocial outcomes (fatigue, depressive symptoms, anxiety, loneliness, daytime sleepiness, and stress). Participants were dichotomized into two groups by age (aged less than 50 years and aged 50 years or older). Descriptive statistics, bivariate correlations, and multiple regression were also examined.
findingsYounger BCS reported greater fatigue, loneliness, daytime sleepiness, and stress than older BCS. No between-group differences were found in depressive symptoms or anxiety. Having children and less time since chemotherapy completion were significant predictors of less loneliness in younger BCS.
