Current status of academic palliative medicine in Poland: a nationwide study.
Article in BMC palliative care, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
aimTo assess the current status of palliative medicine (PM) education in medical students in Poland.
methodsData on PM teaching were obtained from a 16-item questionnaire sent to the heads of PM and palliative care (PC) departments at universities or university authorities. In cases in which there was no PM or PC department, the questionnaire was sent to authorities of a given University.
resultsEleven PM and PC departments were included in the analysis; 7 at the medical universities, and four at collegium medicum at universities. Among these there were two chairs of PM (at the Medical University of Poznań and the Collegium Medicum at the University of Zielona Góra) and one chair of PC (in Bydgoszcz). Most of the Departments were part of faculties of medicine, and a minority were part of faculties of health sciences. There were no PM or PC departments at 2 medical universities, three at collegium medicum at universities, and 6 at faculties of medicine; two at public universities and 4 at non-public universities. All programs of PM teaching included the philosophy of PC, and pain management. The majority included management of other symptoms, emergencies, communication, ethical issues and psychological issues in PC. Of 12 programs, 9 included practical (bedside) teaching. The numbers of hours allocated to PM ranged from 15 to 45 (median 20).
conclusionsHalf of the universities that educate medical students in Poland had PM departments and provided obligatory PM teaching. Establishing departments of PM and PC at all medical universities, collegium medicum at universities, and faculties of medicine at universities with a common PM program as an integral part of undergraduate education is suggested through including PM as a separate subject to the Regulation of the Ministry of Education and Science and initiatives of National and Provincial Consultants in PM.
