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

This longitudinal study investigated changes in family resilience, support, and functionality among breast cancer patients during the pre-operative and post-operative phases. The study was grounded in McCubbin's model, emphasizing the psychosocial impact of illness and the cultural dynamics of the Greek family system. A longitudinal cohort study was conducted on women diagnosed with breast cancer, aged over 18, undergoing mastectomy, fluent in Greek, and capable of completing questionnaires at two time points, pre- and post-operatively. Standardized instruments were used: the Family Assessment Device (FAD), the Family Crisis Oriented Personal Evaluation Scales (F-COPES), the Family Problem Solving Communication Scale (FPSC), and the Family Support Scale (FS-13). Data were analyzed using paired
