The effects of family resilience and body image on psychosocial adaptation among young and middle-aged breast cancer patients.
Article in Frontiers in psychology, 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
Aim: To determine how family resilience and body image are related to psychosocial adaptation in young and middle-aged patients with breast cancer and whether body image functions as a mediator. Background: Social support is known to be relevant to adaptation after breast cancer. Less is known about the pathway linking family resilience to psychosocial adaptation through body image. Methods: Questionnaire data were obtained from 229 postoperative patients selected by convenience sampling. Family resilience, body image, and psychosocial adaptation were measured using the Chinese versions of the Family Resilience Scale, Body Image Scale, and Psychosocial Adaptation Scale for Breast Cancer, respectively. The hypothesized associations and indirect pathway were evaluated by structural equation modeling. Results: Valid data were available for 220 of the 229 participants (96.07%). Family resilience, body image, and psychosocial adaptation had mean scores of 102.34 ± 12.93, 7.19 ± 5.91, and 181.10 ± 27.97, respectively. Family resilience was negatively correlated with body image ( Conclusion: Patients reporting stronger family resilience also showed better psychosocial adaptation. Part of this association operated through body image. Interventions addressing both family resilience and body image may be useful for young and middle-aged patients with breast cancer. Relevance to clinical practice: Assessment of psychosocial adaptation should consider both the patient's family environment and concerns about physical appearance. Family-based support may assist patients in managing body image distress and adapting to life after breast cancer treatment.
