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
Education programs for certified palliative care nurses who promote advance care planning (ACP) for cancer patients are important, but not currently available in Japan. This study aimed to develop an educational program of ACP for certified palliative care nurses in Japan and evaluate its effectiveness. A program consisting of four modules was implemented for 60 certified palliative care nurses in the Kyushu, Chugoku, and Shikoku regions. Participants attended one training session, and 39 responded to a survey on changes in ACP practice and difficulties with cancer nursing 3 months after the intervention. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test was performed to compare data before and after the intervention. The results obtained showed an increase in dialogue on ACP among patients/families and healthcare professionals (mean before the intervention = 24.49, mean after the intervention = 27.59, p = 0.045), and a significant decrease in the sense of difficulty with knowledge of and skills for ACP (mean before the intervention = 4.85, mean after the intervention = 4.30, p = 0.001). More than 90% of the participants gave positive comments on the evaluation items such as understanding and satisfaction with the educational program and appropriateness of the contents. After attending the training program, participants' sense of difficulty with their knowledge of and skills for ACP decreased, and their practice of ACP increased. This program may promote the practice of ACP for cancer patients in the future.
