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
purposeThe present study aimed to investigate the status and significantly influencing factors of treatment and prognosis perceptions among advanced cancer patients based on patient-reported outcome.
methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted at two tertiary A general hospitals. From June to September 2019, 300 patients were invited and 292 of them participated in this study. Except for 9 invalid questionnaires, 283 pen-paper questionnaires including sociodemographic and clinical characteristics, Chinese Version of Prognosis and Treatment Perception Questionnaire, Herth Hope Index, and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale were well completed. Descriptive analysis, Pearson's correlation test, logistic regression analysis, and multiple linear regression analysis were applied for analysis.
resultsOne hundred seventy-five (61.8%) advanced cancer patients reported inaccurate treatment perception. Prognosis perception scored 87.9 ± 13.72 indicating a middle level of prognosis perception. Fourteen (4.9%), 138 (48.8%), and 131 (46.3%) patients presented low, middle, and high prognosis perception levels, respectively. In patients, without spouse and religion beliefs, received chemoradiotherapy, diagnosed as cancer equal to or less than 1 year, and higher hope level were inaccurate treatment perception's risk factors. Younger age, longer diagnosis time, higher educational level, less support for medical expenses payment, receiving chemoradiotherapy, and lower hope level but more anxiety and depression symptoms were positive predictors of prognosis perception.
conclusionsA majority of advanced cancer patients in this study reported inaccurate treatment and middle level of prognosis perception influencing by objective and subjective factors. Clinical interventions could be developed referring these impacting factors originating from patient-reported outcome.
