Pancreatic Cancer Patients Supportive Care Needs: A Qualitative Analysis.
Article in Psycho-oncology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
objectivePancreatic cancer (PaCa) patients face a 5-year survival rate of just 13%. Most patients present with unresectable disease and endure aggressive treatments with significant chronic and debilitating side effects. PaCa patients also experience significant unmet supportive care needs (e.g., physical, psychological, informational/educational); however, limited qualitative studies have explored the specific needs of racially and ethnically diverse PaCa populations.
aimsThis study identified supportive care needs in a racially and ethnically diverse sample of PaCa survivors.
methodsAs part of a larger project to develop a psychosocial symptom management intervention, semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted with PaCa survivors to explore the supportive care needs at diagnosis and after treatment. Qualitative data were analyzed using Rapid Qualitative Analysis, and personal/medical characteristics were analyzed using descriptive statistics.
resultsPaCa survivors (n = 18; M
conclusionsWe emphasize the themes of unmet supportive care needs in a racially and ethnically diverse sample of PaCa survivors. These findings underscore the importance of developing interventions to address these gaps and improve the overall quality of life for diverse PaCa patients.
