Latent profile analysis of health literacy among breast cancer patients and comparative analysis of quality of life disparities.

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
Objective: This study aimed to explore the latent profiles of health literacy among breast cancer patients and examine their relationship with quality of life. Methods: A total of 182 patients were consecutively recruited from the general surgery department using a convenience sampling method. Data were collected using a general information questionnaire, the Chronic Disease Health Literacy Scale, and the Breast Cancer Quality of Life Scale. Latent profile analysis (LPA) was conducted using Mplus 8.3 to identify distinct health literacy profiles. Subsequently, SPSS 27.0 was used to compare differences in quality-of-life scores the identified profiles. Results: Three distinct latent profiles of health literacy were identified among breast cancer patients: a low health literacy profile (9.2%), a moderate health literacy profile (29.3%), and a high health literacy profile (61.5%). Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that educational attainment, primary caregiver status, and having relatives or friends working in healthcare were significantly associated with health literacy profile membership (all Conclusion: This study identified three distinct health literacy profiles among breast cancer patients, which were significantly associated with different levels of quality of life. To optimize patient outcomes, clinical nursing practice should develop and implement tailored interventions based on these specific profile characteristics.
