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
Grief and bereavement support are essential for patients and family members facing serious illness and the end of life. In total, 126 participants attended a 2-day palliative care training for oncology, the End-of-Life Nursing Education Consortium Oncology advanced practice registered nurse course, supported by a grant from the National Cancer Institute. Participants were asked to complete 3 open-ended questions and an 11-item survey assessing their confidence in providing bereavement support for patients and family members facing serious illness and end of life in postcourse evaluations. Results indicated that the lowest confidence scores were related to basic assessment of grief in adults and pediatrics and the highest confidence scores were providing emotional support for patients/families in their grief and supporting colleagues in their grief. Six themes emerged from the open-ended question that asked participants to share case studies describing a patient or family member that they had cared for who was experiencing grief and nurse interventions: (1) treatment failure/out of options, (2) unexpected death or recent loss, (3) impending death, (4) multiple or overlapping losses, (5) coping, and (6) anticipatory grief. Hospice and Palliative Care nurses can provide bereavement support for oncology patients, their families, and the oncology nurses who care for them.
