A randomized controlled trial of WeChat-based cognitive behavioral therapy intervention to improve cancer-related symptoms in gynecological cancer survivors: study protocol.
Article in BMC health services research, 2022. 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
backgroundGynecological malignant patients often have significant psychological and physical problems. The feasibility and generalizability of traditional intervention method is low due to the high time and labor cost, large number of gynecological malignant tumor patients in China, as well as shortage of health professionals. Therefore, it is necessary to design an alternative, innovative, and easily accessible intervention method. This study aims to evaluate the effect of WeChat-based intervention on anxiety, depression and disease-related symptoms of patients with gynecological malignant tumors during rehabilitation.
methodsA single-blinded, randomized, controlled, parallel-group pre-test and repeated post-test design will be conducted. A total of 76 participants will be randomly divided into the intervention group and control group. Anxiety and depression, disease-related symptoms, coping ability, benefit finding and quality of life will be measured at baseline and repeated immediately after the intervention (test 1), 3 months (test 2) and 6 months (test 3) after the intervention. DISCUSSION: As the first randomized controlled trial with rigorous research design for patients with gynecological malignant tumors in the rehabilitation stage in China, this study will provide evidences for the effectiveness of the WeChat platform during intervention of patients with gynecological malignant tumors in the rehabilitation stage. The results are helpful to further explore the effect of WeChat-based intervention on improving patients' anxiety and depression, disease-related symptoms, and quality of life.
