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
backgroundAccording to the World Health Organization, palliative care (PC) for children involves actively caring for the child's health, mind, and spirit and supporting the family. Pediatric palliative care (PPC) is characterized as a comprehensive strategy for both the child with a fatal illness and his or her family during their tragedy. The study aims to assess nursing students' knowledge and attitudes regarding PPC and determine the association with selected sociodemographic variables. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis descriptive (cross-sectional observational) study was carried out by SUM Nursing College, Bhubaneswar from November 2022 to October 2023 by using three tools (a self-structured questionnaire on sociodemographic data, a standardized questionnaire on knowledge, and a standardized questionnaire on attitude) to assess the level of knowledge and attitude among study participants toward PPC. Nursing students who have already been exposed to pediatric subjects such as B.Sc. 3
resultBased on the investigation, it was discovered that among 223 of the total study sample, 39.5% had good knowledge, and the remaining 60.5% had poor knowledge. In addition, when the attitude of nursing students was analyzed, it was found that 54.3% of the total study sample had positive attitudes, and the remaining 45.7% had negative attitudes toward PPC.
conclusionAs nurses play a major role in delivering PPC, it could be included as a mandatory part in their educational curriculum. A similar study can be replicated among other healthcare professionals in several areas regarding PPC.
