Family Resilience in Adult Oncology: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Synthesis in Oncology nursing forum, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
problem identificationThis systematic review and meta-analysis assessed the state of the science to determine relationships among adult patient- and family member-perceived family resilience, individual resilience and perceived family resilience, and perceived family resilience and psychosocial outcomes. LITERATURE SEARCH: PubMed®, CINAHL®, PsycINFO®, Sociological Abstracts, and Cochrane Library databases were searched. Random effects models were performed to calculate pooled effect sizes, and meta-analyses were conducted. DATA EVALUATION: Two authors assessed risk of bias using the Appraisal tool for Cross-Sectional Studies and the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool. Study heterogeneity was assessed using Cochran's Q test and the I2 statistic. Publication bias was evaluated. SYNTHESIS: Patient-perceived family resilience and family member-perceived family resilience were positively correlated. Family resilience was positively related to patient and family member individual resilience. Higher family resilience was associated with patients' reduced symptom burden and perceived stress and improved affect and quality of life, and family members' reduced caregiver burden and stress and higher social support and quality of life. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING: Investigations employing a longitudinal design are needed to understand any causal relationships between family resilience and psychosocial outcomes for the dyad.
