"Everything I do is for your own good!" Exploring the real experience of family support for cancer survivors' return-to-work in China: a qualitative study.

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
purposeIt remains unclear precisely how families specifically affect cancer survivors in the return-to-work process. This study aimed to delve deeply into the actual experiences and feelings of cancer survivors' return-to-work within the context of their family environments.
methodsFrom April to September 2024, face-to-face, semi-structured interviews were conducted with cancer survivors from a general hospital in China using purposive sampling and following the principle of data saturation. Reflexive thematic analysis was employed to analyze the interview data.
resultsEighteen cancer survivors were interviewed. Due to variations in family structure, family cohesion, and cancer-related knowledge, divergent perspectives naturally existed among families. Overall, family support experiences were conceptually categorized into two types: positive support experiences and negative support experiences. Thematic analysis identified three key themes and ten sub-themes within positive support experiences, whereas three key themes and nine sub-themes emerged from negative support experiences.
conclusionThis study advances understanding of how family support shapes cancer survivors' return-to-work transitions, which could provide a foundation for developing targeted family support interventions in future research.
