Geriatric Psychiatrists' Perspectives on Palliative Care: Results From A National Survey.
Article in Journal of geriatric psychiatry and neurology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
objectivesOlder adults with psychiatric illnesses often have medical comorbidities that require symptom management and impact prognosis. Geriatric psychiatrists are uniquely positioned to meet the palliative care needs of such patients. This study aims to characterize palliative care needs of geriatric psychiatry patients and utilization of primary palliative care skills and subspecialty referral among geriatric psychiatrists.
methodsNational, cross-sectional survey study of geriatrics psychiatrists in the United States.
resultsRespondents (n = 397) reported high palliative care needs among their patients (46-73% of patients). Respondents reported using all domains of palliative care in their clinical practice with varied comfort. In multivariate modeling, only frequency of skill use predicted comfort with skills. Respondents identified that a third of patients would benefit from referral to specialty palliative care.
conclusionsGeriatric psychiatrists identify high palliative care needs in their patients. They meet these needs by utilizing primary palliative care skills and when available referral to subspecialty palliative care.
