Article in Focus (American Psychiatric Publishing), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Psychiatrists can make a significant contribution to improving quality end-of-life care for psychiatric patients, beyond managing their psychiatric and psychological conditions. Geriatric psychiatrists can build expertise in enhancing end-of-life care when caring for older adults with serious illnesses and their families, given the biopsychosociospiritual approach that significantly overlaps with palliative and hospice care approaches. To effectively add quality to end-of-life care, it is essential for psychiatrists to understand the core principles and practices of palliative and hospice care, learn basic symptom management skills, and hone the ability to have crucial conversations regarding prognosis and advance care planning. Also important is recognizing when to refer to hospice and palliative medicine subspecialists. This article provides an overview of palliative and hospice care, uses a case study to illustrate components of palliative and hospice care relevant to geriatric psychiatry practice, and comments on considerations pertinent to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.
