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

Objective: Fertility intention among breast cancer survivors of childbearing age is influenced by clinical, personal, and social considerations. Therefore, multidimensional assessment is essential across treatment and survivorship. Although the Fertility Intention Scale (FIS) assesses fertility intention in women with breast cancer, no validated Korean version is currently available. This study aimed to translate and culturally adapt the FIS into Korean and evaluate its validity and reliability. Methods: This validation study was conducted in two phases. The first phase involved translation and cultural adaptation of the FIS, including forward translation, expert panel review, back-translation, pre-testing, cognitive interviews, and linguistic refinement. The second phase evaluated psychometric properties using secondary data from 203 women aged 18-45 years with breast cancer. Construct validity was assessed using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), known-group validity, and convergent validity. Reliability was evaluated using Cronbach's Results: The CFA indicated an overall acceptable, though marginal, model fit. Known-group validity was confirmed, as women planning pregnancy scored significantly higher on the Korean FIS (K-FIS) than those not planning pregnancy ( Conclusions: The K-FIS showed generally acceptable preliminary evidence of reliability and validity for assessing fertility intention among Korean women with breast cancer. It may support tailored fertility interventions and counseling in oncology nursing practice.
