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
objectivesTo explore the impact of acceptance commitment therapy(ACT) to treatment on the mental health of elderly breast cancer patients.
methodsSixty elderly breast cancer patients admitted to a cancer hospital were selected and divided into a control group (n=30) and an intervention group (n=30). The control group received conventional interventions, The intervention group received an additional ACT. Psychological status, quality of life, sense of meaning in life of the two groups were observed and compared.
resultsAfter intervention, the self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self-rating depression scale (SDS) scores of the intervention group were lower than those of the control group (p<0.001, p<0.001). In terms of sense of meaning in life, the intervention group scored significantly higher than the control group at post-intervention (p<0.001); Additionally, in terms of quality of life, the scores of the intervention group after the intervention were significantly higher than those of the control group (p<0.001).
conclusionThe effect of ACT in elderly patients with breast cancer can effectively improve the psychological state, quality of life and sense of meaning in life of patients, and the application of this therapy can be further promoted in the future.
