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

Objectives: The feasibility of a fatigue Cognitive Bias Modification training was evaluated in women on treatment for breast cancer in a multi-center waitlist-control design assessing feasibility criteria, such as recruitment, retention, and completion rates, as well as effects on fatigue bias. Methods: Five hospitals were each asked to recruit 30 patients, who were sequentially divided in active and delayed treatment groups. Fatigue bias and self-reported outcomes (fatigue, vitality, avoidance, and all-or-nothing behavior) were measured in baseline, training, and follow-up phases. Results: Feasibility results were mixed with recruitment and retention not meeting predetermined criteria, but completion and variability were judged positively. Training effects on fatigue bias compared to control were found. Conclusions: This study evaluated a promising novel fatigue intervention. Continuation with an RCT is encouraged with recruitment and retention strategies reconsidered. Trial registry: This study's protocol (Geerts, et al., 2024) was preregistered at the Open Science Framework on October 31st, 2023.
