Cancer patients' acceptance of virtual reality interventions for self-emotion regulation.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. 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
This study investigates the acceptability of Virtual reality (VR) technology for emotional regulation among cancer patients. Drawing from extensive literature, we enhanced external variables across user characteristics, product impact factors, and social environment influences, creating the "Theoretical Model of Cancer Patients' Acceptance of VR Intervention for Self-Emotion Regulation." Surveying 489 Chinese cancer patients validated the model's strong reliability through SPSS AMOS analysis. The acceptance of VR intervention for self-emotional regulation among cancer patients was assessed, revealing that the average scores across all 13 dimensions exceeded 3. This indicates that cancer patients hold a positive attitude toward VR-based emotional regulation interventions. Perceived usefulness, usage attitude, social norms, immersion, and personal innovation correlated positively with behavioral intention, while technological anxiety and perceived risk showed negative correlations. Findings support 15 hypotheses, offering theoretical backing for VR technology in emotional regulation for cancer patients. These insights provide medical institutions with valuable data on patient attitudes, facilitating the development of targeted treatment approaches.
