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

This review summarizes the definition, diagnosis and prevalence of anxiety and depression symptoms and disorders in people with cancer, followed by an overview of integrative therapies that are guideline-recommended for managing these conditions. Recommended therapies include mindfulness-based interventions, yoga, relaxation, music, reflexology, Taichi/Qigong, acupuncture, lavender aromatherapy and hypnosis. This is followed by a summary of emerging therapies that show preliminary evidence of efficacy, but are not yet included in guideline recommendations, including other forms of aromatherapy, light therapy, biofield therapies, psychedelic-assisted therapy and nature-based interventions. The paper concludes with a summary of common methodological issues and suggestions for future research directions.
