Evaluating a transdisciplinary supportive care model for advanced liver disease: Results of the
Trial report in Palliative & supportive care, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesPatients with advanced liver disease (ALD) may benefit from the early integration of supportive care toward the end of life. Engagement with supportive and palliative care could decrease disease-related distress and alleviate pressure on the health system. This trial evaluated whether a transdisciplinary supportive care model, aligned with standard care and guided by patient- and carer-identified needs, could optimize health service utilization and outcomes for patients and carers living with ALD.
methodsA 90-day multicenter, mixed-methods pilot randomized controlled trial,
resultsOver 90 days, emergency department presentations were reduced by 66% (incidence rate ratio: 0.34 [0.13-0.80]), and hospital admissions by 64% (incidence rate ratio: 0.36 [0.12-0.98]). Intervention patients were 5 times more likely to have more days "alive and out of hospital" than those receiving standard care alone (odds ratio: 5.34 [1.43-22.1]). As a result, the overall cost of health service use per intervention patient was less than half that of standard care alone. SIGNIFICANCE OF
