Let's Talk About Sex: An Acceptable, Appropriate and Feasible Online Sexual Health Educational Video Series for Breast Cancer Patients.
Article in Research square, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
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
Purpose: Sexual health-related side effects during breast cancer treatment are common and distressing but not always expected by patients. We created an online sexual health educational video series to increase patients' awareness of these issues. In this exploratory study, we aimed to evaluate the acceptability, appropriateness, and feasibility of the video series among newly diagnosed breast cancer patients. Methods: Eligible and interested patients completed a baseline questionnaire within one month of diagnosis or surgical evaluation. Enrolled participants accessed the online sexual health video series. A follow-up questionnaire evaluating acceptability, appropriateness, and feasibility was administered after 6-months. Descriptive statistics and paired t-tests were utilized. Results: Twenty-eight participants (January-June 2024) with mean age of 48 years (±8 years) comprised the present analysis. Eighty-six percent were White, 4% Hispanic, 89% straight/heterosexual, 86% married/partnered, and 68% were stage I at diagnosis. Eleven participants (39%) completed the 6-month survey, and nine participants reported watching the online videos. Nearly all completely agreed or agreed that the video series was acceptable (mean 4.1 [±1.0]), appropriate (mean 4.3 [± 0.7]), and feasible (mean 4.4 [±0.7]). Qualitative feedback showed strong endorsement for the video series and offered suggested improvements. Conclusion: Breast cancer patients lack access to sexual health resources during treatment, but an online educational video series is acceptable, appropriate, and feasible to utilize. This video series fills a unique gap in patient care, and with further iterations and development has the potential to significantly advance the sexual health resources available to breast cancer patients and survivors.
