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

purposeWomen with breast cancer often experience persistent psychological distress. Promoting resilience in stress management (PRISM) is a manualized, skills-based, psychosocial intervention shown to promote resilience and alleviate psychological distress among adolescents and young adults with cancer.

methodsThis pilot, convergent mixed methods study examined PRISM's feasibility and in-sample preliminary impact (single-group) on psychosocial outcomes of women with early stage breast cancer (EBC). Women receiving chemotherapy for stage I-III breast cancer completed six standard PRISM sessions focused on rapport building, stress management, goal setting, cognitive reframing, meaning-making, and family integration. Feasibility, the primary outcome, was defined as 70% of participants completing all intervention sessions and pre-post survey. Secondary outcomes included intervention acceptability, appropriateness, and 8 psychosocial outcomes. Patient perspectives on PRISM were elucidated via qualitative interviews and deductively analyze. Pre- and post-intervention changes in survey scores were analyzed using paired t-tests and Cohen's d effect size.

resultsOf 57 patients approached, 30 (53%) participated in PRISM; participants were 57% Black with median age of 51 years (IQR 47-59). PRISM sessions were feasible based on the 83% completion rate. Additional secondary implementation outcomes also demonstrated feasibility, acceptability, and appropriateness using validated survey measured. The largest effects were observed in participants' resilience (d = 0.6), growth (d = 0.5), and self-improvement (d = 0.5). Interviews supported both feasibility and impact of PRISM.

conclusionThe PRISM-EBC intervention was feasible, and pre-post changes suggest potential benefit, warranting further investigation in a future randomized controlled trial.
