Mindfulness-based stress reduction effects on resilience, individual independence and quality of life of spinal cord injury patients: A randomized clinical trial.
Trial report in The journal of spinal cord medicine, 2026. 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
purposeto investigating the effectiveness of a Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) intervention on resilience, quality of life (QoL), and individual independence in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). MATERIALS &
methodsIn this randomized clinical trial, 56 individuals with SCI were recruited through convenience sampling and randomly assigned to intervention and control groups. The intervention group received six weekly face-to-face MBSR sessions, while the control group continued with their routine home care. Patients completed assessments at three time points: baseline, immediately post-intervention, and one-month post-intervention. The assessments included demographic information, the spinal cord injury Quality of Life Questionnaire (SCIQL-23), Spinal Cord Independence Measure III (SCIM III), and the 10-item Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC-10-P). Data were analyzed using inferential statistics, including independent t-tests and repeated measures ANOVA, with SPSS version 26.
resultsThe MBSR intervention significantly improved resilience and QoL in the intervention group at both post-intervention time points compared to baseline (
conclusionMBSR, a simple, nurse-led, and non-invasive intervention, significantly enhanced resilience and QoL in individuals with SCI. These findings highlight the value of psychological interventions in improving mental well-being in this population. Nonetheless, the lack of improvement in individual independence suggests the need for further research to explore this outcome more thoroughly.
