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

Purpose: The purpose of this qualitative study is to demonstrate the use of patient-reported outcome measure-based journey maps in facilitating clinicians' ability to communicate with patients about their well-being at each phase of their cancer journey. Methods: Individual semi-structured online and phone interviews were conducted with older adults in British Columbia, Canada. Participants (n = 6) were asked to describe their cancer experiences associated with their well-being score using the Edmonton Symptom Assessment System revised questionnaire throughout their cancer journey (i.e., pre-diagnosis, diagnosis, treatment, to post-treatment). Results: Six older adults who received cancer treatment were interviewed. Six journey maps were developed with evidence of fluctuation in participants' level of well-being through their cancer journeys. Conclusion: Journey maps can facilitate patient-clinician communication for tailoring interventions and draw clinicians' attention to additional prompts to better understand patients' well-being throughout the cancer journey.
