Examining the Role of Narrative in Palliative Care for Parkinson Disease: Changing the Story.
Article in Neurology. Clinical practice, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Recent years have seen growing interest in neuropalliative care as a subspecialty. Simultaneously, the rise of narrative medicine in patient support groups and clinician training programs offers a way to listen deeply to the stories of those living with chronic illness and may inform corresponding health interventions. This commentary examines the ways in which an understanding of illness narrative schemata, particularly the so-called "chaos narrative," can contribute to patient and care partner distress, which in turn can be alleviated by a palliative care approach. Through examples of stories of people with Parkinson disease and their care partners, the article emphasizes the intersections between narrative medicine, neurology, and palliative care. Specific opportunities for bringing narrative medicine into the clinic are discussed.
