Depression impact on PTSD in Cancer patients through serial mediation of hope and perceived social support.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Previous studies have only established a strong association between depression and post-traumatic stress disorder in cancer patients, without clarifying the potential mechanisms underlying this relationship. This study examines the relationship between depression and PTSD(Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder) in cancer patients, focusing on the sequential mediation of hope and perceived social support. A cross-sectional study was conducted at oncology wards in an Anhui tertiary hospital between February-August 2024. The investigation employed four instruments: PTSD checklist-civilian version, self-rating depression scale, perceived social support scale, and herth hope index. Analysis included 192 cancer patients, after removing 8 invalid responses from 200 initial participants. Treating depression as the predictor variable in cancer patients revealed a robust association with PTSD symptoms. (β = 0.620, t = 10.904, p < 0 0.001, R
