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
backgroundProviding quality end-of-life care to individuals with advanced dementia is crucial. To date, little attention has been paid to palliative care knowledge and attitudes toward palliative care for people with advanced dementia in Spain.
objectivesTo investigate the knowledge of and attitudes toward palliative care for advanced dementia among registered nurses and physicians in Spain.
methodsA descriptive, cross-sectional survey design was used. This study included a convenience sample of 402 nurses (n = 290) and physicians (n = 112). Two instruments were administered: demographic characteristics and Spanish version of the Questionnaire of Palliative Care for Advanced Dementia (qPAD-SV). Descriptive statistics and multiple regression were used for data analysis.
resultsOverall, the nurses and physicians had moderate mean scores for both knowledge of and attitudes regarding palliative care for advanced dementia. Physicians had a higher level of knowledge (p < 0.05) compared to nurses. Additionally, physicians and nursing staff who had professional experience/ education in geriatrics and those who had received palliative care and hospice training had greater (p < 0.01) knowledge of palliative care. In addition, healthcare professionals who had received dementia care training and who had worked in nursing homes had higher levels (p < 0.05) of knowledge and attitudes toward palliative care.
conclusionThis study indicates the need to provide nurses and physicians with more education for select groups of professionals who have had limited education and experience in caring for older adults with advanced dementia.
