Mindful eating as a supportive intervention for breast cancer survivors: a pilot randomized controlled trial.
Trial report in Breast cancer (Tokyo, Japan), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07007104 (Exploring the Impact of Mindful Eating), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
backgroundBreast cancer (BC) survivors often face weight management and disordered eating challenges that may impair quality of life. This pilot randomized controlled trial evaluated the effects of a six-session mindful eating intervention on eating behaviors and body composition in BC survivors.
methodsBreast cancer survivors were enrolled in a pilot randomized clinical trial and randomly assigned to mindful eating intervention plus treatment-as-usual (TAU + MEI, n = 13) or treatment-as-usual alone (TAU, n = 15). Intuitive and mindful eating were assessed using the Intuitive Eating Scale-2 (IES-2) and the Mindful Eating Questionnaire-30 (MEQ-30). Anthropometric measures were assessed monthly over six months. Longitudinal changes were analyzed using repeated-measures ANOVA and generalized estimating equations (GEE).
resultsReliance on hunger and satiety cues increased significantly over time in both groups (TAU: p = 0.004; TAU + MEI: p = 0.007). Significant improvements were observed in selected mindful eating dimensions, including disinhibition, emo-tional eating, eating control, and eating with attention and intention (all p < 0.05). MEQ-30 total scores increased significantly in both groups (TAU: p < 0.001; TAU + MEI: p = 0.010). Waist circum-ference decreased significantly in the TAU group (p = 0.002), while hip circumference decreased in the TAU + MEI group (p = 0.009). GEE analysis showed that participation in the TAU + MEI group was independently associated with lower BMI over time (p = 0.013), whereas HR(+)/HER2(-) sub-type and chronic disease were associated with higher BMI (all p < 0.05).
conclusionsBoth TAU and TAU + MEI were associated with improvements in selected eating-behavior and anthropometric outcomes over time, including indicators of central adiposity, with no clear overall superiority of TAU + MEI across the outcomes assessed. These exploratory findings support further investigation of incorporating mindful eating into standard nutritional care for breast cancer survivors.
