Is there a role for hypnosis in palliative care?
Review in Palliative care and social practice, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Hypnosis has gained popular interest over the last few decades and has become increasingly subject to research study. Evidence of benefit in the palliative care setting is largely lacking, but it has been shown to have a favourable impact on psychological symptoms, especially anxiety, as well as chronic pain conditions. As a personalised approach, hypnotherapy is an excellent example of individual-centred care. Moreover, in the absence of significant adverse effects, it offers great promise as a complementary therapy.
