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
Objectives: Patients with hematologic malignancies face a unique illness trajectory that contributes to high distress. Physician-patient communication can enhance well-being, therapeutic alliance, and adherence; however, its impact in hematology remains underexplored. We investigate the satisfaction of people with leukemia and lymphoma regarding the communication of healthcare providers and their perceived support, and their effects on distress. Methods: In this cross-sectional, observational study, 54 individuals with leukemia and lymphoma completed a questionnaire assessing their perceived support, communication, and distress. We conducted correlation and regression analyses to assess how healthcare worker-patient communication and perceived support relate to distress. Results: We found moderate to high distress in more than 60 % of patients. Main results revealed that distress was related to the perception of having received adequate information from healthcare providers, Conclusions: Findings highlight healthcare providers' role in reducing distress by addressing patients' informational needs, underscoring the necessity of targeted communication training. Innovation: This study pioneers evidence in hematology, demonstrating how patient-centered communication and tailored strategies effectively support patients' well-being in unpredictable trajectories.
