Psychosocial Wellbeing among Patients with Breast Cancer during COVID-19.
Article in Current oncology (Toronto, Ont.), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The impact of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) on the wellbeing of breast cancer (BC) patients is not well understood. This study described psychosocial problems among these patients in the United States (US) during the COVID-19 pandemic. Data were collected from BC patients via an online self-report survey between 30 March-6 July 2021 to assess the prevalence of COVID-19 diagnosis history and potential depression, health-related quality of life, COVID-related stress, and financial toxicity. Patients with early-stage (eBC) and metastatic (mBC) disease were compared. Of 669 patients included in the analysis, the prevalence of COVID-19 diagnosis history (10.9% versus 7.7%) and potential depression (33.7% versus 28.3%) were higher in mBC than eBC patients. Patients with eBC (versus mBC) had higher scores on nearly all Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Breast scales (all,
