Effectiveness of a Care Plan Based on the Multi-Theory Model in Reducing Fear of Disease Progression and Improving Quality of Life in Breast Cancer Patients: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

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
Purpose: Fear of progression has become a prominent mental health problem. Our research aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a care plan based on the Multi-Theory Model of health behavior change in reducing fear of progression in breast cancer patients undergoing adjuvant chemotherapy. Patients and Methods: This randomized controlled trial enrolled 108 eligible participants receiving adjuvant chemotherapy at Jiangnan University Affiliated Hospital between May and December 2024. Routine care was administered to the control group, while the intervention group received the multi-theoretical model-based nursing intervention program integrated with general nursing. The evaluation time points included pre-intervention, immediately post-intervention (after 6 weeks), and 1-month post-intervention. Data were analyzed using Fisher's exact test or chi-square test, Mann-Whitney Results: At various post-intervention assessments, the Multi-Theory Model group demonstrated significantly lower fear of progression scores along with higher self-management efficacy and quality of life scores, compared to the control group ( Conclusion: A nursing program grounded in the multi-theoretical model reduced the level of fear of progression, and improved quality of life and self-management efficacy in patients with breast cancer undergoing postoperative chemotherapy. These findings can provide a reference for psychological interventions in clinical settings for breast cancer patients.
