Weight Management Experiences Among People Affected by Overweight and Obesity Who Are Living With and Beyond Colorectal, Breast or Prostate Cancer: A Cross-Sectional Survey.
Article in Cancer medicine, 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
introductionAfter a cancer diagnosis, recommendations for those living with and beyond cancer (LWBC) are to maintain a body mass index (BMI) < 25 and avoid weight gain. This study explored factors associated with receipt of and interest in weight management advice as well as engagement in weight management programmes (WMPs) among people LWBC affected by overweight and obesity.
methods3456 participants living with or beyond breast, prostate or colorectal cancer and affected by overweight and obesity completed our questionnaire. Participants reported advice received on losing weight, interest in receiving weight management advice, enrolment in a lifestyle programme and their beliefs about maintaining a healthy weight to prevent cancer recurrence.
resultsLogistic regression results suggested that those who received advice were more likely to be interested in advice (OR = 1.68; 95% CI = 1.30; 2.18) and to be enrolled in a WMP (OR = 1.60; 95% CI = 1.07; 2.40). The belief that maintaining a healthy weight could prevent cancer recurrence was associated with greater interest in weight management advice (OR = 1.47; 95% CI = 1.33; 1.62) and enrolment in a programme (OR = 1.57; 95% CI = 1.25; 1.99). DISCUSSION: These results highlight that those who recall receiving weight management advice are more likely to be enrolled in a WMP, suggesting that advice should be offered by healthcare professionals to all those patients affected by overweight and obesity.
conclusionsThis suggests that the receipt of weight management advice may encourage people LWBC who are affected by overweight and obesity to engage with WMPs.
