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
Objective: This study aimed to clarify the characteristics of telenursing practices for palliative symptom management in patients with cancer. Methods: Participants were recruited using purposive and snowball sampling to identify nurses with experience in providing telenursing for patients with cancer. Semi-structured interviews were conducted face-to-face or online to explore participants' experiences between October 2024 and January 2025, and thematic analysis was then used to analyze the data. Results: Ten participants (mean nursing clinical experience: 16.20 years; standard deviation [SD] = 13.44) were included in this study. Four themes were identified in telenursing practices for symptom relief in patients with advanced cancer: information gathering in telenursing under conditions of uncertainty, clinical reasoning in telenursing, telenursing care practices in non-face-to-face setting, and key elements in telenursing. Information gathering comprised two sub-themes: "Symptom data acquisition via remote devices," and "Addressing inadequate information from remote devices." Clinical reasoning included two sub-themes: "Clinical assessment of non-face-to-face patient data" and "Judgment of urgency." Care practices consisted of five sub-themes: "Strategies for non-face-to-face interactions," "Selecting intervention methods based on patient characteristics," "Practice based on protocols," "Selection of follow-up methods," and "Emergency response." Key elements include two sub-themes: "Safe and versatile telenursing systems" and "Trusting relationships." Conclusions: Telenursing practices for symptom relief in patients with cancer are characterized by adaptations to non-face-to-face care delivery while maintaining core nursing competencies. Notably, establishing trusting relationships remains a critical element of effective telenursing practice.
