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
backgroundPatient-centered communication (PCC) is an important metric related to patient health outcomes. Non-Hispanic Asian (NHA) individuals reported lower PCC scores with healthcare providers than individuals of other races and ethnicities. We aim to determine the ethnic disparities in PCC and further investigate the association between PCC, individual's confidence in obtaining health-related information (health literacy), and confidence in taking care of themselves (health self-efficacy) among NHA in comparison to the Non-Hispanic White (NHW) population.
methodsThis is a cross-sectional study. We used data from the Health Information National Trends Survey 5 (HINTS) cycles 1 and 3. PCC was measured using seven validated survey questions with scores ranging from 7 to 28. Individuals' health literacy and self-efficacy were accessed using two-item survey questions. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to determine the association of independent factors (e.g., self-efficacy, health literacy, and race and ethnicity) with PCC.
resultsWe included 3,831 participants. Fewer NHAs (35.43%) reported high PCC scores compared to NHWs (48.99%, p = 0.0184). In fully adjusted logistic regression model, although NHAs were less likely to have high PCC scores (aOR = 0.78, 95% CI 0.46-1.32) compared to NHWs, the association was not statistically significant (p = 0.350). However, the aOR of confidence in self-efficacy associated with high PCC scores was 2.27 (95% CI 1.68-3.07, p < 0.001) and the aOR of confidence in health literacy with high PCC scores was 2.13 (95% CI 1.64-2.76, p < 0.001).
conclusionsHigh PCC scores reported by NHA were not significantly different from those of NHW individuals in adjusted comparisons. Individual's confidence in self-efficacy and health literacy was positively associated with high PCC regardless of race and ethnicity.
