A qualitative study on the mismatch between health literacy and nursing needs in the postoperative recovery of breast cancer: nurse and survivor perspectives.
Article in BMC nursing, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveThis study aimed to explore the mismatch between health literacy and care needs at various stages from the perspectives of both breast cancer survivors (BCS) and nurses.
methodsThis descriptive study utilized purposive sampling to conduct semi-structured in-depth interviews with postoperative BCS and nurses at a hospital in Henan, China, from April to August 2025. Data processing was executed using NVivo 12 software, and content analysis was employed for data analysis.
findingsA total of 25 BCS and 9 nurses participated in the study. Four themes and sixteen sub-themes were identified from the analysis: (1) discharge transition period: construction of safety nets and perceived gaps, (2) treatment and rehabilitation period: the “compliance” dilemma and the absence of empowerment, (3) navigating the transitional teachable moment: the support vacuum from clinical outcomes to life’s new beginnings, (4) the cross-cutting nexus: communication and interaction.
conclusionDiscrepancies exist between BCS and nurses regarding health literacy perceptions and care needs across different survivorship phases. Addressing these gaps requires establishing a new model that integrates dynamic health literacy assessment, relational communication, collaborative rehabilitation planning, and systematic support.
