1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Objective: This cross-sectional study aimed to analyse the interaction willingness regarding empathy and self-disclosure among patients with malignant gynaecological tumours and their spouses and elucidate the underlying mechanisms. Methods: A total of 201 couples, each including one partner diagnosed with a malignant gynaecological tumour, were selected using a convenience sampling method between March 2023 and January 2024. Participants' general information, empathy capabilities, self-disclosure and support coping were assessed by a general information questionnaire, the Interpersonal Reactivity Index-C, the Distress Disclosure Index and the Couple Support Coping Scale, respectively. Results: Both empathy and self-disclosure scores were significantly higher in the patients than in their spouses. Agent and object effect analyses showed that empathy in patients and their spouses could significantly positively predict their own self-disclosure and supportive coping abilities ( Conclusion: The capabilities of self-disclosure and empathy in patients with malignant gynaecological tumours and their spouses are closely associated with spousal support coping. Therefore, interventions should be crafted from a dyadic perspective to enhance both partners' empathic abilities and self-disclosure skills, thereby promoting mutual support and coping capabilities.
