1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

introductionThe Corona pandemic caused far-reaching changes since 2020. We wanted to find out which factors determined the psycho-social well-being of cancer patients during the pandemic.

methodsFrom May to July 2021, structured interviews were conducted concerning lockdown, social limitations, the virus itself, the treatment situation, and opportunities.

resultsTwenty people took part in the study (doctors, psychologists, nurses, social workers, patients). One of the most important aspects was the ban on visits. Others were the fear of infection and the possibility of vaccination. Wearing a mask seem to have been worse for the experts. Conflicts in families about the "right" behavior to protect yourself from infection have been a stressful issue for patients, just as the lack of balance and recreation in free time.

conclusionPatients in the third wave of corona have become accustomed to the rules. Especially loneliness and the organization of time at home are psycho-social stress factors.
