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
introductionPaediatric palliative care involves the physical, psychological, and spiritual well-being of terminally ill children and their families. Competency in palliative care centred on personal traits and attributes, key abilities to satisfy professional duty through practise, and knowledge of palliative care.
objectiveIs to identify paediatric nurses' perceived Competencies toward Palliative Care for Terminally Ill Children.
methodUsed was a descriptive research design. The sample included 72 nurses who worked at neonatal, pediatric intensive care units ( NICU, PICU) in four hospitals affiliated to Universal Health Insurance (UHI) in Port Said City, namely ( El Nasr, El Salam, El Hayah, and pain outpatient clinic at El Tadamon) hospital. The structured questionnaire and the nursing palliative care quiz are the first tools used to evaluate sociodemographic characteristics. Data were gathered using a second tool, the Nurses' Core Competencies in Palliative Care questionnaire.
resultsBased on the study, 56.9% of nurses had adequate knowledge, and 47.2% of paediatric nurses agreed that they had some extendable palliative care competences.It can be summarized that more than sighlty half of the studied sample have adequate knowledge while the rest of the studied sample have inadequate knowledge,with statistically significant relationship between nurses' overall perceived competence and overall knowledge.
conclusionThe relationship between nurses' overall perceived competence and overall knowledge was very statistically significant. The Recommendation study's findings highlight the urgent need of creating an evidence-based programme for competency training in palliative care, which should be available in every hospital and adhered to all paediatric nurses.
