Evaluation of Physician Assistants' Self-Reported Attitudes and Behaviors After Completion of a Hospital-Wide Multidisciplinary Communication Skills Training Workshop.
Article in Journal of patient experience, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Physician's assistants (PA) are an integral part of hospital teams. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to examine the effects of a multidisciplinary hospital-wide communication skills training (CST) workshop on PAs. From November 2017 to November 2019, all participants in the CST workshop were sent a web-based retrospective pre-post survey to measure self-reported attitudes and behaviors related to communicating with patients, CST, and specific skills taught. PA responses were analyzed alone and were compared to non-PAs. Non-PAs were physicians and 1 nurse practitioner. In total, 258 PA and 333 non-PA participants were surveyed for an overall response rate of 25%. Among PAs, in 9 out of 10 domains measured, there was a significant change in self-reported attitudes and behaviors toward communicating with patients, CST, and skills taught (
