Feasibility and acceptability of a self-management intervention supporting return to work for women with breast cancer.

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
Introduction: Increased cancer survivorship has prompted focus on optimising quality of life, including work reintegration. Despite frequently cited return-to-work barriers for women with breast cancer, there are no conclusive work-focused interventions for this cohort. The aim of this study was to assess feasibility and acceptability of a self-management intervention supporting return-to-work for women with breast cancer. Methods: A mixed-methods single-arm feasibility study evaluated intervention feasibility. Participants completed an online occupational therapy-led 'Work and Cancer' intervention over 6 weeks. Feasibility was determined by recruitment, adherence, retention and acceptability. Acceptability was also assessed through semi-structured interviews. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and thematic analysis. Results: Ten out of twelve participants who were approached, participated in the study. Retention and adherence was 100% and 90%, respectively. Every participant completed pre- and post-measures. Qualitative data indicated online and group format as enablers to intervention completion and juggling employment as a barrier. Conclusion: It is feasible to recruit and retain participants to the 'Work and Cancer' intervention which was widely accepted by women with breast cancer. Large-scale evaluation will determine intervention effectiveness on work and health-related outcomes.
