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
objectiveCancer patients have a higher suicide risk than the general population. Oncology nurses play a critical role in assessing and managing this risk. However, they often lack the necessary awareness, knowledge, and skills. This study developed an Oncology-Specific Suicide Prevention Program (OSP) for oncology nurses. It aims to assess how the OSP affects nurses' suicide literacy, suicide stigma, and efficacy in suicide risk management.
methodResearchers developed the OSP based on findings from cancer-related suicide studies. The intervention included three structured online sessions for the experimental group, each session addressing specific aspects of suicide prevention strategies in oncology care. Researchers conducted a randomized controlled trial with 86 nurses from two oncology hospitals in Ankara. Nurses were randomly assigned to an experimental group (n = 43) or a control group (n = 43) after stratifying by years of work experience. The control group received usual in-service training. Researchers collected data using the descriptive information form, the literacy of suicide scale, the stigma of suicide scale, and the efficacy perception scale for suicide risk management for oncology nurses.
resultsThe experimental group showed a significant increase in suicide literacy (p < 0.001) and efficacy perception for suicide risk management (p < 0.001). They also showed a decrease in suicide stigma (p = 0.013) compared to the control group. These effects were measured at the end of the program and 3 months later.
conclusionIntegrating the OSP into in-service training for oncology units and national and international suicide prevention strategies is suggested.
