Functional and psychosocial quality of life in gynecologic Cancer survivors with and without lymphedema symptoms.
Article in Gynecologic oncology, 2023. 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
objectiveThe goal of this study was to compare function, quality of life, body image and distress levels between gynecologic cancer survivors with and without lymphedema symptoms as well as to determine how many individuals received rehabilitation treatment following treatment for gynecological malignancy.
methodsThis prospective longitudinal cohort study sought to examine long-term physical and psychosocial outcomes among gynecologic cancer survivors.
resultsParticipants in the symptomatic group reported lower quality of life, lower function scores, and greater cancer-related, with greater rates of clinically significant levels of distress. These results remained largely consistent in multivariable models.
conclusionsWe found lower extremity lymphedema to be associated with lower quality of life, lower limb function, greater distress, and negative body image.
