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
Background: Due to lack of formal training, young doctors cannot deliver bad news in a way that is expected by patients and their attendants, thereby jeopardizing doctor-patient relationship. Aim: The aim of this study was to train interns about "breaking bad news" to the patients using a structured module. Materials and Methods: A workshop comprising interactive lectures and videos followed by debriefing, and discussion was conducted for interns. Pre/posttest, workshop feedback evaluation, and a group activity based on article case were conducted, followed by discussion. An assessment of skills based on a checklist was done after 15 days of workshop in simulated conditions. Results: There was a significant difference in scores of written tests taken by all 56 participants before and after the session ( Conclusions: A structured module is an effective method in improving the skills of the interns in sharing bad news with the patients.
