Effectiveness of a Self-Esteem Enhancement Intervention Integrated into Standard CBT Protocol for Improving Quality of Life in Patients with Colorectal Cancer.
Article in European journal of investigation in health, psychology and education, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) has proven effective in addressing the psychological and emotional challenges of cancer. This study evaluated the impact of a self-esteem enhancement intervention integrated into a standard CBT protocol on the quality of life and self-esteem of women with colorectal cancer. Conducted at Spitalul Județean Clinic Bihor (Romania) between August 2020 and March 2024, the study included 67 women aged 32 to 66 years undergoing chemotherapy or combined chemotherapy and radiotherapy. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of a self-esteem enhancement intervention integrated into a standard CBT protocol on the quality of life and self-esteem of women with colorectal cancer. Participants were assigned to a CBT group, receiving eight weekly sessions based on the Simonton Program, or a control group on a psychotherapy waiting list. Quality of life was assessed using the EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire, and self-esteem was measured through actual and ideal self-perceptions. A repeated measures ANOVA analyzed changes in both outcomes. Results showed a significant improvement in quality of life (F = 6.33, df = 1, 65,
