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
Objective: To investigate the association of mental and oral health with the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in patients with cancer and cancer survivors. Methods: This cross-sectional study involved 1643 patients with cancer and 1628 individuals who survived cancer (aged ≥ 19 years) using data from the 2005-2018 Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. The data were analyzed using SAS survey procedures (version 9.4), Results: Regarding differences in mental and oral health factors by group, the results revealed significant differences between depression, suicidal ideation, subjective oral health, chewing problems, and speaking problems due to oral issues. The HRQOL of patients with cancer was lower than that of cancer survivors. The factors influencing HRQOL in both patients with cancer and cancer survivors were education status, economic activity, subjective health, suicidal ideation, and speaking problems due to oral issues. HRQOL was also associated with depression in patients with cancer. Conclusions: Patients with cancer had a lower HRQOL than cancer survivors. The two groups of patients showed significant differences in the factors associated with HRQOL. Therefore, customized health programs and policies should be developed and implemented for each group to improve their QOL.
