Triaging symptom calls with and without practice guides: A case exemplar.
Article in Canadian oncology nursing journal = Revue canadienne de nursing oncologique, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
This case exemplar demonstrates use of COSTaRS symptom practice guides for enhancing quality of telephone-based nursing services. The case is based on findings from an audit of nurse-led telephone consultation documentation from 299 patients' health records in ambulatory oncology programs. Phone calls between a 49-year-old woman with metastatic colon cancer and three registered nurses (RNs) are described herein. The patient received chemotherapy intravenously (day 1) and orally (days 1-14). On days three, five and six she telephoned her RN to report nausea and vomiting. The first two RNs advised her to take her antiemetics with no assessment documented. The third RN used a COSTaRS symptom guide to conduct a thorough assessment, medication review, and discussed strategies for self-management.
