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
Ophthalmologists in hospitals and private practices are repeatedly confronted with difficult conversations and the transmission of bad news. A good doctor-patient communication is based on respect and empathy and includes verbal and nonverbal interactions. An important conversation requires a sound preparation by the doctor, an environment that is as undisturbed as possible and a time frame that is not too short. The communication should be honest and understandable and tailored to the retentive abilities of the patient. The setting, perception, invitation, knowledge, empathy, strategy (SPIKES) protocol provides a guide for an important conversation. After the bad news, a break for processing and reaction is necessary for the patient and the responses should be received in an empathetic and nonjudgmental manner. The goal is that the patient is able to accept the bad news, a joint consensus about how to proceed can be reached and the patient feels supported and well cared for.
