Transformative process in narratives of bodily autobiographical memories: A psychological clinical group intervention with breast cancer survivors.
Article in Health psychology open. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Breast cancer survivors often report internal sensations of discomfort that influence body image or the subjective representation of one's appearance, which can cause a disconnection between body and personal identity. 12 breast cancer survivors were involved in a group psychological intervention which focused on the management of autobiographical memories related to their own body after breast cancer. Three open questions related to their body autobiographical memories were administered pre, post and 1 month later after the intervention. Autobiographical memories were analyzed with a qualitative methodology to explore the transformative process at three time points. Findings highlight three main themes: (1) narratives of cancer-related memories (2) narratives of emotion towards the body after cancer (3) narratives of memories of internal reflections. This innovative psychological group intervention appears to support breast cancer survivors in re-taking control of their own autobiographical memories related to the body and their related emotions.
