Neuropalliative Care in India - Barriers, Challenges and Future Directions.
Article in Annals of Indian Academy of Neurology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Neuropalliative care is an emerging sub-specialty of neurology and palliative care that aims to relieve suffering from symptoms, reduce distress and improve the quality of life of people with life-limiting neurological conditions and their family caregivers. As advances are being made in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of neurological illnesses, there is an increasing need to guide and support patients and their families through complex choices involving immense uncertainty and important life-changing outcomes. The unmet need for palliative care in neurological illnesses is high, especially in a low-resource setting like India. This article discusses the scope of neuropalliative care in India, the barriers and challenges that impede the specialty's development, and the factors that could facilitate the development and scale-up delivery of neuropalliative services. The article also attempts to highlight priority areas for advancing neuropalliative care in India which include context-specific assessment tools, sensitization of the healthcare system, identification of intervention outcomes, the need for developing culturally sensitive models based on home-based or community-based care, evidence-based practices, and development of manpower and training resources.
