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.

Palliative care in Malaysia has progressed steadily since its inception in 1991, and it has been integrated gradually into primary health care in the past decade. This study aims to assess the level of knowledge and the attitudes towards palliative care and its associated factors among primary care physicians. A cross-sectional study was conducted among primary care physicians using two validated questionnaires: the Palliative Care Knowledge Test (PCKT) and Frommelt's Attitude Toward Care of the Dying (FATCOD). The data were analysed using descriptive and linear regression statistics. A total of 241 primary care physicians from 27 different health clinics participated in the study. The mean PCKT score was 8.68 (2.94), whereas the mean FATCOD score was 106.8 (9.14). The maximum score for each questionnaire was 20 and 150, respectively. There was a significant positive relationship between knowledge and attitudes toward palliative care, with a
