1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The role a pharmacist plays in the care of patients is continually changing and expanding. Most recently, there is movement towards including pharmacists in the physical assessment of patients. We developed a creative movement workshop with the purpose of increasing students' levels of comfort with touch, ability to interpret non-verbal mannerisms, to increase empathy for the patient, and to increase student comfort in conducting physical exams. In this interventional study, surveys were administered to third year pharmacy students, before and after the creative movement workshop, in order to assess participant's change in level of comfort with a variety of behaviors needed to conduct effective physical assessment. The two hour workshop involved: partner stretching, mirroring, and creative spatial exploration between bodies. The 11-item survey evaluated students' perceptions on touch, nonverbal communication, and sharing personal space. Our results showed that the level of comfort improved for the ability to give touch (
