"Like pouring salt in a wound": A qualitative exploration of the consequences of unmet housing needs for cancer patients and survivors in New York City.
Article in Journal of psychosocial oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveTo identify consequences of unmet housing needs in the period following cancer diagnosis.
designQualitative descriptive design.
participantsNew York City-based cancer patients and survivors (
methodsOne-time semi-structured telephone or in-person interviews were conducted with all participants. Inductive thematic coding was conducted using a pragmatic paradigm.
findingsFour categories of consequences emerged: 1) cancer management and health (rest and recovery, illness/injury risk, medical care); 2) psychological (stress and anxiety, lack of control and independence, self-esteem/pride, sadness/depression, cancer coping); 3) social (relationships, consequences for others, isolation); and 4) standard of functional living.
conclusionThe simultaneous experience of cancer and unmet housing needs is broadly burdensome. IMPLICATIONS FOR PSYCHOSOCIAL PROVIDERS: Screening and resources for addressing unmet housing needs must be prioritized to holistically care for patients.
