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
Aim: Peer Support Workers (PSW) as an Innovative Force in Advocacy in Dementia Care (PIA) project aimed to create sustainable and competency-enhancing services for people with dementia by finding new ways to involve former as well as current caregivers in dementia services and, therefore, provide their valuable perspective in dementia care and daily practice. Participants and Methods: In order to achieve the aforementioned goals, the first step consisted in mapping the situation existing in the partners' countries, respectively, Norway, Greece, Italy, and Romania. Subsequently, specific and well-structured training material was created with the purpose of recruiting and engaging PSW, in order to contribute to dementia services. The training material was then transferred to a digital platform addressed to PSW, people living with dementia (PwD), caregivers, and health professionals. Results: The PIA project proposed the introduction of PSW in dementia care, establishing a close collaboration across the contributing countries, and trained a total of fifty potential PSW. Each country identified a specific role and function of PSW in dementia practice, according to their national particulars. The training seminars and videos proposed by the PIA project are presented in the current study and therefore helped to the distribution of significant information about the contribution of (potential) PSW in dementia care. All the results were uploaded on the platform designed to increase communication and collaboration across health professionals as well as caregivers. Conclusion: The PIA project developed and designed training materials and methodologies for establishing PSW in dementia care in Norway, Greece, Italy, and Romania. PIA aims at introducing PSW in the healthcare system of the aforementioned countries, whereas future studies will elaborate on novel ways to measure the efficacy of being a PSW, as well as the benefits to stakeholders.
