Pain: a descriptive study in patients with cancer.
Article in Clinical journal of oncology nursing, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Ninety percent of patients with advanced cancer are reported to experience pain at some time during the course of their illness. This pain usually is improperly evaluated because it varies by patient and is difficult to control. Pain often cannot be conceptualized because of the individual nature of patient experience; however, patterns of pain occur in those suffering from similar conditions. This secondary analysis was conducted to examine the characteristics of pain in individuals with advanced cancer. The sample consisted of 717 patients with cancer who were receiving hospice home care in the southeastern United States. An understanding of the total pain experience, including type of pain and pain location, is important for addressing pain in patients with cancer in hospice care. More effective strategies are needed for pain management in this patient population. In addition, steps need to be taken to ensure that hospice care is understood by and made available to minorities.
