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
Objective: To explore fear of cancer recurrence (FCR) profiles in prostate cancer survivors, identify heterogeneous subgroups, and examine influencing factors to provide a reference for improving mental well-being and overall quality of life. Methods: A convenience sample of 389 patients completed a questionnaire that assessed general and disease-related data, including the Fear of Progression Questionnaire-Short Form, Perceived Social Support Scale, European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30. Statistical analysis involved latent profile analysis (LPA), Bolck-Croon-Hagenaars methods and multinomial logistic regression. Results: Three FCR profiles were identified: "Adapted" (25.7%), "Struggling" (42.2%), and "Dysregulated" (32.1%). Compared to the Adapted group, factors associated with the Struggling group included age, social support, and employment status, while factors associated with the Dysregulated group included age, social support, and time since diagnosis. From Adapted to Dysregulated, physical, cognitive, emotional, and social function declined, while dyspnea, insomnia, and financial difficulties increased. Conclusions: The psychological problems caused by the FCR in patients with prostate cancer seriously affect their physical, emotional, cognitive and social functions. Targeted intervention strategies should be developed for different categories of patients with prostate cancer to improve the FCR and promote the health-related quality of life.
