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
This study aimed to determine the levels of spiritual care needs and death anxiety, as well as the relationship between them, in Turkish patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This descriptive and correlational study included 480 patients who were admitted to the pulmonology outpatient clinics of a public hospital with a diagnosis of COPD between November 1, 2023, and April 31, 2024. The study data were collected using the Patient Diagnosis Form, Dyspnea Fear Level Assessment Form, Spiritual Care Needs Inventory, and Templer Death Anxiety Scale. It was determined that 60.8% of the patients had high death anxiety and moderate spiritual care needs. A positive correlation (r = 0.327; p < 0.01) was found between the mean scores of the Spiritual Care Needs Inventory and the Templer Death Anxiety Scale. Patients with high death anxiety also had high spiritual care needs (p < 0.01). It was determined that the gender of the patients, fear of dyspnea, and death anxiety predicted 20% of the need for spiritual care (R = 0.457, R
