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
Objectives: To explore whether training on the SICG-Peds© (Serious Illness Guide for Pediatrics) impacts a pediatric clinician's confidence and knowledge in participating and initiating/leading difficult conversations with families of children living with a serious illness. Methods: Over 2 years, clinicians from BC and Ontario who care for children with serious illnesses attended training workshops on the SICG-Peds©. These workshops were evaluated using pre- and post-workshop questionnaires. Participants reported confidence scores on a scale of 1 to 10. Results: In total, 134 and 140 clinicians attended the workshops in BC and Ontario, respectively. The majority of clinicians who completed the immediate post-workshop survey ( Conclusions: Overall, these workshops significantly improved participants' confidence. Effectiveness and knowledge enhancement were other areas where the majority of participants reported positive improvements. Areas for continued support were identified as more mentoring, and training for supporting the guide's use in a clinical setting.
