1 · What the graph read from 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.

Abstract

objectivesThis qualitative-descriptive study explored adolescent and young adult (AYA) perspectives, experiences, and challenges with openness and closedness in family communication about Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS).

methodsWe conducted interviews with AYAs (aged 15-39 years) with LFS enrolled in the National Cancer Institute's LFS study (NCT01443468). An interprofessional clinician-researcher team analyzed transcribed data using the constant comparative method and interpretive description.

resultsAYAs (N = 38; 26 females, 12 males, mean age=29 years) reported navigating openness and closedness about LFS in their families, which varied by LFS topic, relationship, disease trajectory, and developmental phase. AYAs described communication challenges, including broaching difficult topics (e.g., reproductive decision-making, end-of-life), balancing information-sharing with emotionally protecting family and self, and struggling with interactions that cause relational tensions.

conclusionsAYAs reported experiencing LFS family communication challenges that disrupted their psychosocial well-being. LFS-related stressors and life transitions complicated and were complicated by these challenging family interactions. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: Clinicians may support AYAs with LFS by inquiring about family communication, responding empathically to communication concerns, providing resources to support difficult conversations, and engaging mental health providers as needed. Researchers could partner with AYAs to develop tailored communication skills training and social support tools.
