Commentary: adding realism and perspective to behavioral counseling curricula for medical students.
Article in Academic medicine : journal of the Association of American Medical Colleges, 2012. 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
Hauer and colleagues have made an important contribution to medical education by documenting how best to teach behavioral counseling skills to medical students. Although the authors of this commentary agree that these skills are important for physicians to learn, they argue that physicians must acknowledge realities regarding the role of physicians as behavioral counselors and the limited effectiveness of counseling during clinical encounters. Students and physicians need to understand the limited role that the medical care system plays in determining lifestyles and the more potent effect that community-wide interventions can have. The authors call for education about behavioral counseling that teaches necessary skills, yet develops realistic expectations of what physicians can and cannot do by themselves, understanding of when to refer patients for intensive counseling, and recognition of the importance of societal factors in effecting behavior change.
