Breaking bad news protocol for cancer disclosure: an Iranian version.
Review in Journal of medical ethics and history of medicine, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
In Iran, as in many Asian and Middle Eastern countries, a significant proportion of cancer patients are never informed of their illness. One solution that has been proposed to tackle this challenge is to develop a localized protocol on cancer diagnosis disclosure based on the culture and values of community members, and train healthcare team members to deliver the bad news using this protocol. This article introduces a localized protocol for disclosure of bad news to cancer patients in Iran. This protocol consists of six steps, including assessment, planning, preparation, disclosure, support and conclusion. In the drafting of this protocol an attempt was made to meticulously consider the cultural features of the Iranian society. Although breaking bad news will never be easy, having an appropriate plan of action based on individual's attitudes, considerably helps health-care professionals, and provides more satisfaction in patients.
