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
backgroundBreast cancer significantly impacts the social relationships and self-efficacy of affected patients. PURPOSE: To investigate the role of self-efficacy and the ability to maintain social relationships in breast cancer patients during the postoperative period.
methodThis study is a brief intervention study in the same population group (within-subjects intervention study), in two measurements (pre-test and post-test), conducted in 58 breast cancer patients hospitalized in oncology hospitals in Athens (February 2021-November 2021). The following validated scales were used: the Social Relationship Coping Efficacy Scale (SRCE), the Family Support Scale (FS-12), and the Family Problem Solving Communication Scale (FPSC).
resultsThe mean age of the participants was 52 years. No statistically significant differences were observed in the scales after the intervention. The degree of change in the scales had minimal differences across all types of treatment. However, there was a statistically significant correlation between the change in the SRCE and the FPSC (
conclusionsThe intervention had a positive effect on maintaining social relationships and improving communication for problemsolving ability, although the overall changes in the scales were not statistically significant.
