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

Cancer survivorship often includes reproductive health concerns (e.g., fertility potential and treatment-related health problems) that elevate psychological distress. Partner support is a key, modifiable resource linked to better adjustment, yet its pathway of influence is not fully understood. To test whether partner support mediates and/or moderates the association between reproductive health concerns and psychological distress among female cancer survivors. A cross-sectional study was conducted with 202 married female cancer survivors (ages 20-49) attending the oncology departments of Tanta University Hospital, Egypt. Validated measures included the Reproductive Concerns after Cancer Scale, Partner Support Scale, and Kessler Psychological Distress Scale. Higher reproductive concerns related to greater distress (r = 0.517, p < 0.01). Partner support correlated negatively with reproductive concerns (r =  - 0.446, p < 0.01) and distress (r =  - 0.471, p < 0.01). Adding partner support improved prediction of distress (Model 2, R
