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
objectiveStigma toward mental illness has been extensively described among health care professionals and has important implications with respect to quality of care. Narrative medicine has the potential to bring about positive impacts on the practitioner-patient relationship and on patient outcomes. The authors carried out a pilot study investigating the impact of narrative medicine on residents' stigma toward bipolar disorder.
methodsPsychiatry residents attended four narrative medicine workshops. During the encounters, the residents watched a video vignette displaying stigma-related experiences and life challenges faced by a standardized patient with bipolar disorder and were encouraged to discuss their personal reactions, opinions, and other reflections prompted by the video vignette, as well as to write reflective pieces on the content mobilized by the discussion. Stigma toward mental illnesses was measured through the Mental Illness: Clinicians' Attitudes Scale-Version 4 (MICA v4).
resultsA total of 22 psychiatry residents attended the four narrative medicine workshops. Overall, the activity was well received by the residents. There was a small, non-significant decline in the pre- and post-activity MICA v4 scores among residents.
conclusionThe findings demonstrate the feasibility of implementing narrative medicine workshops for psychiatry residents and highlight the need for further studies with larger samples and a control group to evaluate its impact on stigma.
