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
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesCaring for geriatrics and palliative care patients requires integrated interprofessional care. Studies regarding interprofessional education in family medicine reveal concerns by residents regarding applicability in future practice. Our study objective was to determine the effectiveness of teaching multispecialty geriatric and palliative care skills to family medicine residents using an interprofessional clinic curriculum.
methodsWe evaluated an interprofessional geriatric and palliative care outpatient curriculum from March 2014 to June 2015. The interprofessional team included pharmacists, psychologists, family medicine geriatricians, and palliative care providers. Family medicine residents in a 3-year residency program completed pre- and postassessments evaluating their confidence and knowledge in specific areas of geriatric and palliative care. These assessments covered their abilities in starting advance care planning and setting goals in care discussions, as well as fall and depression assessment and elderly medication review. The subsequent resident perception of teaching effectiveness was also assessed. Qualitative comments were evaluated for themes. Patient perceptions were also surveyed.
resultsFamily medicine residents completed 52 surveys (51%). Improvements in all areas were significant (
conclusionsThe use of an interprofessional and multispecialty clinic curriculum to teach geriatric and palliative care improved resident self-assessed knowledge and confidence as well as teaching effectiveness. Further studies evaluating resident exposure to such visits could substantiate the long-term influence of this educational endeavor.
