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
backgroundPatient safety is a serious global public health concern, especially for those patients undergoing chemotherapy. The purpose of this pilot study was to assess the knowledge, attitude, and practice among hospital pharmacists in China towards the safety issues of antitumor agents for the patients discharged.
methodsThe pilot study was processed using an online questionnaire targeting hospital pharmacists in China. Ten, five and four questions were used to investigate pharmacists' knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) respectively.
resultsA total of 360 questionnaires by pharmacists out of 412 (87.4%) were qualified and enrolled. It was found that 58.7% were familiar with safety-related knowledge; 32.2% believed that safety risks exist and 85.3% were willing to provide medication education to patients with cancer who take medication at home after discharge; 91.4%have sometimes taken the initiative to promote safety-related knowledge to their patients.
conclusionsThe research firstly provided some insights into the hospital pharmacists' KAP regarding the safety issues of antitumor agents for patients with cancer discharged in China. Attention should be paid to the knowledge of pharmacists, the awareness of the safety risks of patients with cancer who take medication at home after discharge, and the accessibility to consult with pharmacists after discharge.
