Use and impact of virtual resources for peer support by young adults living with cancer: A systematic review.
Article in Canadian oncology nursing journal = Revue canadienne de nursing oncologique, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Background: Young adults (YA) with cancer often have unmet psychosocial needs. The impact of peer support delivered in an online format to fulfil these needs in the populations of YA with cancer has not been thoroughly examined. Methods: We searched Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, CINAHL, Embase, and Medline databases. We included articles about online peer support interventions for YA cancer survivors between the ages of 18 to 40 years old. Results: Our literature search yielded n = 2,773 articles and we obtained consensus on 12 articles for inclusion. We qualitatively synthesized these articles using data abstraction based on the Template for Intervention and Replication (TIDierR) checklist. Overall, six studies demonstrated correlation between online peer support and improved wellbeing of participants. Thus, online peer support may be useful for young cancer patients. Conclusion: This systematic review summarizes the current state of knowledge regarding the availability and evaluation of online YA peer support programs and reveals the need for further research in this field.
