Cancer pain and quality of life structural equation model based on the biopsychosocial model.
Article in BMC cancer, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectiveThis study employed a biopsychosocial framework to develop structural equation models(SEM)quantifying the multidimensional impact of pain on quality of life in cancer patients, aiming to provide scientific evidence and novel clinical perspectives for evidence-based pain management strategies.
methodsThis cross-sectional study recruited participants experiencing chronic cancer-related pain using convenience sampling from a tertiary cancer hospital in Shandong Province, China, between January and February 2024. Data collection involved face-to-face administration of the Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form and the Quality of Life Questionnaire-Function 17. Descriptive statistics and reliability analyses (Cronbach's α) were performed using SPSS 27.0. Confirmatory factor analysis and SEM were subsequently conducted using AMOS 23.0, with parameters estimated via the maximum likelihood method.
resultsTwo SEMs were developed to elucidate relationships between cancer pain and quality of life. The first-phase SEM demonstrated acceptable fit (χ
conclusionPain has a negative impact on all aspects of quality of life, and different dimensions of pain interference have varying effects on the dimensions of quality of life. These insights advocate for a multidimensional approach to pain management in cancer care to improve patient quality of life.
