Dyadic Latent Profiles of Sexual and Reproductive Distress in Young Adult Cancer Survivors and Their Partners: A Cross-Sectional Analysis.
Article in Psycho-oncology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04806724 (Opening the Conversation for Couples With Reproductive Health Concerns), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
backgroundYoung adult (YA) breast and gynecologic cancer (BGC) survivors commonly experience sexual and reproductive health (SRH) distress after cancer, with far-reaching consequences for relational functioning, health outcomes, and quality of life. Despite this burden, the dyadic experience and relational patterns of SRH distress in this population have not been well characterized.
aimsThe objectives of this study were to characterize dyadic profiles of SRH distress and to examine the association with other individual and interpersonal characteristics.
methodsThis study employed dyadic Latent Profile Analysis (LPA) in STATA/SE to identify distinct SRH distress profiles across 79 survivor-partner couples, with measures of reproductive and sexual distress as LPA indicators. Following profile identification, we used ANOVA and chi-square tests to examine how these dyadic profiles differed across characteristics.
resultsThree dyadic profiles emerged: low-distress (30.4%), moderate-distress (43.0%), and high-distress (26.6%). Low-distress couples had significantly higher levels of dyadic coping, constructive communication, and open discussion of SRH concerns along with the highest rates of sexual activity. In contrast, high-distress couples demonstrated poorer coping and communication and significantly lower sexual activity. Moderate-distress dyads fell between these extremes. Comparisons across these profiles showed no significant differences in demographic or cancer characteristics.
conclusionsFindings underscore the central role of relationship processes, including dyadic coping and communication, and their potential as modifiable intervention targets for YA BGC survivor couples experiencing SRH distress. Identifying distinct couples' profiles of SRH distress may facilitate more precise identification of high-need dyads and guide the development of tailored interventions.
