Current Engagement in Advance Care Planning in Japan and Its Associated Factors.
Article in Gerontology & geriatric medicine. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 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
Using the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare national data on perspectives toward medical care at the end of life, this study examined the current status of engagement in advance care planning (ACP) activities among physicians and nurses in Japan and associated factors. Only 28.7% of physicians and 27.6% of nurses answered that they were engaging their patients/clients in ACP. Multinomial regression analysis revealed that more frequent involvement in caring for dying patients was associated with ACP engagement for both physicians and nurses. Increased years of clinical practice experience and working in a hospital were associated with decreased likelihood of nurses' ACP engagement. Completion of training designed to promote patient self-determination at the end of life was associated with both physicians' and nurses' ACP engagement. It is recommended that health care professionals be encouraged to complete such training to promote patients' autonomy through ACP.
