Article in Asia-Pacific journal of oncology nursing, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map.

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.

Abstract
Objective: Lung cancer and its prolonged treatment are profoundly unsettling for patients and their family caregivers, and developing dyadic measures to alleviate their negative affectivity is pivotal. This study aimed to develop a complex intervention to alleviate dyadic psychological stress among patients with lung cancer and their family caregivers. Methods: A stepwise multi-method study was conducted following the Medical Research Council framework. Three phases were adopted, namely: (1) a preparation phase, a systematic review was conducted to identify the evidence base, (2) a development phase, empirical data from a quantitative study and a qualitative study were integrated to identify effective components, and (3) a modification phase, an online Delphi survey was carried out to refine the intervention. Results: The dyadic Mindfulness Self-Compassion intervention developed in this study consists of six weekly sessions. The key components of the intervention include: (1) getting along with cancer (introductory session targets illness perception), (2) practising mindful awareness (core session for mindfulness), (3) defining dyadic relationships and introducing self-compassion (core session for self-compassion), (4) promoting dyadic communication (maintenance session targets communication skills), (5) promoting dyadic coping (maintenance session targets coping skills), and (6) a summary session reviewing the rewards and challenges of dyadic adaptation named embracing the future. Conclusions: An evidence-based, theory-driven, and culturally appropriate dyadic Mindfulness Self-Compassion intervention was developed for patients with lung cancer and their family caregivers. Future studies are warranted to pilot and evaluate the usability, feasibility, acceptability, satisfaction, and effectiveness of this complex intervention.
