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

Background: Patients with breast cancer face a complex situation upon receiving their diagnosis and considering future treatment options. In Indonesian culture, relatives and others significantly influence decision-making processes. Understanding the perspectives of Indonesian women with breast cancer regarding treatment decision-making can enhance satisfaction with the care provided. Objective: This study aimed to explore the experiences of Indonesian women with breast cancer regarding treatment decision-making. Methods: A qualitative descriptive study design was utilized. Purposive sampling was employed to select the study participants. In-depth interviews were conducted with 15 women with breast cancer between March and June 2023. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis. Results: Three main themes were developed: 1) Emotional impact and uncertainty in cancer care, 2) Clear communication and support for patients, and 3) Family-centered decision-making in treatment planning. Conclusion: This study highlights the perspectives of Indonesian women with breast cancer on treatment decision-making. Nurses play a crucial role in providing clear information to patients and their families during the decision-making process. Understanding the experiences of women with breast cancer can help support and empower patients through effective communication while they undergo treatment.
