Transitions to palliation: two solitudes or inevitable integration?
Review in Current oncology reports, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 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
As options for systemic therapy for cancer continue to expand and median survival for many solid tumors lengthens, the divisions between active oncologic and palliative care continue to blur. Despite the well-recognized need to integrate palliative support for those with metastatic cancer, data on best practices facilitating the transition from active oncologic to active palliative care are lacking. Recent evidence outlining evolving issues surrounding this transition in care is reviewed, emphasizing the need for rigorous research efforts to define best practices and interventions.
