Sociability of male cancer patients with stoma: a qualitative metasynthesis.
Article in Revista brasileira de enfermagem, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesto synthesize evidence from qualitative studies produced in literature on the sociability of men with ostomies due to a cancer diagnosis.
methodsa qualitative metasynthesis was conducted in seven databases with studies published between 2004 and 2024. The sample included six studies, analyzed using MaxQDA® software, validated by Critical Appraisal Skills Programme, and synthesized based on the concept of sociability.
resultsfour descriptive topics were identified: a) Challenges in sexual performance; b) Physical and emotional impacts: self-esteem and social isolation; c) Social limitations and strategies for living with a stoma in society; d) Alternating male behaviors within the family structure. These topics were encompassed by the analytical topic: Male sociability in transformation: experiences of men with a stoma. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: culturally constructed masculinity shapes men's sociability, but living with a stoma generates insecurity, redefines social roles, and significantly impacts the dynamics of public and private relationships.
