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

objectivesThis study sought to examine the validity and reliability of the Turkish adaptation of the Peace, Equanimity, and Acceptance in the Cancer Experience (PEACE) scale. The primary objective was to evaluate the scale's psychometric properties in measuring acceptance and coping among cancer patients.

methodsThe study included 90 cancer patients who completed the 12-item PEACE scale. The scale consists of two distinct subscales: the 5-item Peaceful Acceptance subscale and the 7-item Struggle With Illness subscale. Reliability was examined using Cronbach's alpha and test-retest reliability (

resultsThe internal consistency for both subscales was satisfactory (Cronbach's α = .78 for both). EFA indicated that the two subscales explained 53.169% of the total variance. CFA substantiated the two-factor model, demonstrating adequate model fit indices (χ SIGNIFICANCE OF

resultsThe PEACE scale is a valid and reliable instrument for assessing levels of acceptance and coping in cancer patients. Its use can help healthcare professionals better understand patients' emotional states and guide interventions aimed at improving their quality of life.
