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
Palliative care can be offered concurrently as a treatment option to patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) to relieve symptoms and improve quality of life. However, it is infrequently used and is associated with misconceptions. Limited studies have reported patients' perspectives of palliative care as a treatment option for PAH. We conducted a web-based survey, informed by a brief targeted literature review and input from patients and clinicians, which was completed by adults (≥ 18 years) in the United States (US) with self-reported PAH. Patients reported demographic and disease variables and their perspectives and experiences with palliative care. Patients self-reported their Pulmonary Hypertension Functional Class Self-Report class, EmPHasis-10, and 6-min walk test. A total of 200 respondents (86.5% female; mean age 58.5 years) from 42 US states completed the survey between 19 September and 3 October 2023. Most respondents described palliative care as "end-of-life care" (
