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

purpose of the reviewThis review advocates for the integration of health coaching into oncology care to enhance outcomes for patients, caregivers, healthcare professionals, and oncology services. Health coaching is a person-centred, supportive process that facilitates navigation through trauma, loss, and change while promoting holistic health, physical, emotional, social, and spiritual. It also supports overcoming depression and anxiety by aiding patients in redefining life priorities for health and fulfilment post-treatment. RECENT

findingsSystematic reviews indicate that health coaching can reduce anxiety and depression in cancer patients, conditions linked with increased cancer recurrence and mortality. Consequently, health coaching holds potential not only to improve quality of life but also to influence cancer morbidity and mortality. The authors' view is that health coaching fills an important gap in oncology services, offering a scalable, cost-effective solution to improve patient outcomes across the cancer continuum. With established global standards and clear competencies, health coaching should be integrated as an essential component of oncology care services.
