Factors influencing social avoidance and distress after radical lung cancer resection: a mediation analysis.

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
objectiveTo investigate factors influencing social avoidance and distress (SAD) in patients following radical resection of lung cancer (RRLC) and analyze the mediating effects among these factors.
methodsClinical data from 320 patients who underwent RRLC between January 2022 and December 2023 at the General Hospital of Western Theater Command PLA were analyzed. Data were collected using the General Information Questionnaire, Social Avoidance and Distress Scale (SADS), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), Perceived Social Support Scales (PSSS), General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES), and Consumer Experiences of Stigma Questionnaire (CESQ). Spearman correlation analysis explored the relationships between SAD, anxiety and depression, social support, self-efficacy, and stigma. Multiple linear regression identified factors influencing SAD. The PROCESS tool was used to test the mediating effects of these factors.
resultsThe mean SADS score was 16.73±4.69. SAD was positively correlated with anxiety, depression, and stigma (r=0.662, P<0.001; r=0.687, P<0.001) and negatively correlated with self-efficacy and social support (r=-0.682, P<0.001; r=-0.705, P<0.001). Multiple linear regression indicated that anxiety, depression, social support, self-efficacy, and stigma were significant influencers of SAD (β=0.132, P<0.001; β=-0.078, P<0.001; β=-0.178, P<0.001; β=0.115, P=0.002). Mediation analysis revealed that anxiety and depression directly affected SAD and indirectly influenced SAD through social support, stigma, and self-efficacy, both independently and via chain mediation (P<0.05).
conclusionsPatients post-RRLC generally exhibit moderate SAD levels. Anxiety and depression directly influence SAD and also indirectly through the mediating effects of social support, stigma, and self-efficacy. Therefore, reducing depression and stigma while enhancing social support and self-efficacy is crucial for alleviating SAD in these patients.
