Breast Cancer Worry in U.S. Female First-degree Relatives: Moderating Role of Daily Spiritual Experiences.
Article in Journal of religion and health, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Female first degree relatives of breast cancer patients experience worry because of their own increased breast cancer risk. The aim in the present study was to examine the role of daily spiritual experiences as a potential protective factor against breast cancer worry. We hypothesized that daily spiritual experiences would moderate the relationship between relatives' stage of disease and breast cancer worry. Sixty-three mothers, daughters or sisters of breast cancer survivors completed surveys assessing relative's disease characteristics and their own demographics, fear of breast cancer, and daily spiritual experiences. All participants were living in the midwestern United States. Results showed that daily spiritual experiences moderated the relationship between stage of disease and breast cancer worry. Low scores on daily spiritual experiences were associated with more worry when relatives had advanced disease, and high scores on daily spiritual experiences was associated with less worry when relatives had advanced disease. Findings suggest the need to focus on this population when providing support services to families of patients.
