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

backgroundA preliminary randomized controlled trial was conducted to evaluate the impact of a culturally tailored, group-based intervention for Latina breast cancer survivors (BCSs) and their caregivers on survivors' quality of life (QOL) compared to usual care services provided by community-based organizations.

methodsThis study randomized 136 Latina BCSs and 136 caregivers in Washington, DC; New York, New York; and San Jose, California to an eight-session culturally tailored coping and communication intervention (n = 70 dyads) or usual care support services via community-based organizations (n = 66 dyads). QOL domains (anxiety, depression, fatigue, physical functioning, and social functioning) were measured at baseline, immediately post-intervention, and 6 months post-intervention.

resultsAmong the 70 dyads in the intervention, 71.4% (n = 50) attended five or more of the eight sessions, which demonstrated high engagement; 82% of participants were retained at 6 months. Results indicated clinically significant improvements in Latina BCSs' reports of anxiety and fatigue at 6 months postintervention compared to BCSs in usual care; however, after adjustment for multiple comparisons, results were not statistically significant.

conclusionsA culturally tailored, group-based intervention for Latina BCSs and their caregivers led to clinically relevant but not statistically significant improvements in survivors' anxiety and fatigue compared to usual services provided by community-based organizations. Interventions conducted in partnership with community-based organizations yield high engagement and retention; these types of collaborative approaches to psychosocial services have the potential to positively affect Latina BCSs' QOL.
