1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundAlthough the benefits of early palliative care have been established in advanced cancers, there remains a lack of access to and poor uptake of these services. Barriers include healthcare provider attitudes, lack of standardized referral approach, misaligned policy limited resources, and lack of palliative care expertise. PURPOSE: In consideration of these barriers, a description of the development and implementation of an early palliative care initiative at CancerCare Manitoba in Canada is presented. Explanations of innovative planning, processes, teams, and interventions are offered to facilitate insight for those intending to offer early palliative care. DISCUSSION: Barriers and facilitators to integrating a nurse-led early palliative care initiative are discussed. Considerations to mitigate common barriers encountered and leveraging existing resources are offered.

conclusionsThis information may be beneficial to those working to facilitate access to palliative care in oncology for patients with advanced cancers. This model has been successful at our institution with pre and post implementation data presented in an upcoming publication.
