Medicine at theatre: a tool for well-being and health-care education.
Article in BMC medical education, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Effective communication plays a crucial role in healthcare settings, as it enhances patient outcomes and improves the overall quality of care and well-being. The rationale for this study was to use theater as a communicative tool by playing stories related to some important healthcare issues. The specific goal was to study the effectiveness of a specially designed theater intervention in enhancing psychological well-being and awareness of some aspects such as the doctor-patient relationships, communication skills, pro-social behavior, and empathy. A pre- and post-experience questionnaire was used to track the audience's response. The results indicate that theater can efficiently promote well-being and spread crucial awareness about healthcare-related issues. Furthermore, the study underscores the varying perceptions and evaluations of health-related topics among individuals based on their age. Finally, we would like to underlie that theatre can also be a valuable tool for health communication. Clinical trial numberNot applicable.
