Factors influencing perceived communication quality for successful fertility preservation counseling for adolescent and young adult cancer patients and their caregivers in Korea.
Article in Supportive care in cancer : official journal of the Multinational Association of Supportive Care in Cancer, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeAlthough relatively new in Asian countries, fertility preservation (FP) discussions are crucial for adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer patients. This study highlights patients' and their caregivers' perceptions of communications quality during FP discussions in Korea.
methodsParticipants were AYA patients and their caregivers (each: n = 34). The study examined the clinical pathways for FP and used surveys to collect details on discussion characteristics and satisfaction levels during FP discussions at the Yonsei Cancer Center, Seoul, Korea. Quality and degree of satisfaction with FP discussions were measured on a scale ranging from 1 to 7.
resultsTwo caregivers did not complete the survey. All respondents reported high overall satisfaction; however, several factors were related to low satisfaction with information quality. Caregivers who received both verbal communication and nonverbal communication tools (e.g., pamphlets, Internet resources) were more satisfied with the information quality than those who only received verbal communication. Regarding provider type, both respondent groups reported high overall satisfaction with physicians, rather than other types of care providers. Regarding the number of discussion sessions, respondents reported an improved understanding of FP and better communication and information quality if they participated in more than one discussion session.
conclusionThe FP process for AYA cancer patients can be improved by adjusting the type of provider, number of discussion sessions, and types of information. This will form the cornerstone of effective FP communication in Korea.
