Psychosocial intervention in palliative care: What do psychologists need to know.
Review in Journal of health psychology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Emotional and existential suffering is prevalent in advanced diseases and psychologists have valuable skills to support people in this time of life. Yet, psychologists are rarely integrated in palliative care and relevant training is sparse. Being integrated in other areas of health, it is likely that we will be supporting these patients, whether integrated in a specialized team or not. This article is meant to serve psychologists, already skilled in the art and science of psychosocial intervention, who may find themselves supporting patients with advanced disease. Relevant history of palliative care is provided to elucidate palliative philosophy and approach. Evidence-based existential interventions will be reviewed. Integration of psychological models and both palliative theory and practice is provided to support palliative-appropriate case conceptualizations. Finally, case examples are provided throughout to help readers reconcile their existing practice in this domain of care.
