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 describes the design, implementation, and evaluation of a Competency-Based Pharmacy Education (CBPE) program for 120 direct-to-patient (DTP) pharmacists in China, aimed at improving pharmaceutical care and pharmacotherapy skills. The program, which integrated Case-Based Learning (CBL) and Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE), included both online and in-person sessions. A cross-sectional analysis of participant performance and satisfaction showed a mean total OSCE score of 68.31. Participants demonstrated strengths in communication and documentation, with one-third of participants achieving high scores, while weaknesses were noted in patient education and care planning. Participant surveys revealed significant perceived improvements in communication and patient education skills among 62.5% of the participants. These findings suggest that CBPE is a promising approach for pharmacist training, advocating for its broader adoption to meet the evolving demands of healthcare and improve patient outcomes.
