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
Given the barriers to advance care planning (ACP) and low utilization of outpatient advance directives in hospital settings, it is unclear if ACP in primary care for adults who have experienced homelessness is effective and a valuable use of clinical time. As part of our ACP Project, we examined the feasibility and outcomes of ACP in primary care for patients who have experienced homelessness. We found that such efforts had significant impacts on patients' hospital care and allowed their wishes to be honored when they lost capacity for medical decision-making, particularly at the end of life. Here, we present six case studies demonstrating the outcomes of ACP in primary care for homeless adults and highlight lessons learned. To our knowledge, this is the first case series showing how ACP for homeless adults in primary care has been utilized during hospital care. Based on our findings, we believe that outpatient ACP even for the most socially vulnerable patients is feasible, often impactful, and should be integrated into routine primary care.
