Relationship between problem solving dimensions and psychological distress among cancer caregivers.
Trial report in Journal of psychosocial oncology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundFamily caregivers of patients with cancer face numerous challenges, leading to a heightened risk of psychological distress. Problem-solving abilities of cancer caregivers may influence coping and be relevant in anticipating the level of support needed from palliative care.
objectiveResearchers sought to evaluate the relationship between problem-solving dimensions and psychological distress, specifically symptoms of anxiety and depression, among family caregivers of cancer patients receiving outpatient palliative care.
methodsResearchers conducted a cross-sectional exploratory study using data from an ongoing multisite clinical trial. Using block-wise linear regression models, they examined the relationship between psychological distress and problem-solving dimensions.
resultsResults identified positive significant associations between negative problem orientation and symptoms of anxiety and depression, and between avoidance problem-solving style and symptoms of depression.
conclusionStudy results shed light on maladaptive problem-solving as influential in cancer caregiver coping, especially as it relates to risk of psychological distress.
