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

objectivesTo determine clinically meaningful cut points for the Herth Hope Index and evaluate for differences in demographic and clinical characteristics, as well as stress, resilience, and coping, between patients with lower versus higher levels of hope. SAMPLE &

settingOutpatients with cancer receiving chemotherapy (N = 1,295). METHODS & VARIABLES: Patients completed the Herth Hope Index, Multidimensional Quality of Life Scale-Patient Version, and stress, resilience, and coping measures prior to their second or third cycle of chemotherapy.

resultsOptimal cut points for the Herth Hope Index were 40 or less (i.e., lower level of hope) and greater than 40 (i.e., higher level of hope). The Lower Hope group had a higher comorbidity burden and lower functional status. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING: Clinicians can use this information to educate patients about interventions that can decrease stress and improve their coping abilities. Patients with cancer may benefit from having conversations with clinicians that authentically convey prognosis and provide a realistic sense of hope.
