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
Background: This study aimed to investigate the awareness and attitude toward hospice and palliative care among healthcare professionals in a tertiary hospital in China. Methods: A convenience sampling method was utilized to collect data from healthcare professionals in a tertiary hospital in Shanghai, China.

The survey collected participants' demographic information, previous training experience, as well as assessed their knowledge and attitudes toward hospice and palliative care. Results: Two hundred ninteen participants were recruited. One hundred seventy-two individuals (78.5%) demonstrated awareness of hospice and palliative care. Compared to staff in other sections, healthcare professionals in the geriatrics department exhibited significantly higher levels of awareness ( Conclusion: Healthcare professionals in tertiary hospitals possess a certain level of awareness and recognition of hospice and palliative care. This will provide an important basis for the promotion of hospice and palliative care in tertiary hospitals. Tertiary hospitals should establish hospice and palliative training centers, organize multidisciplinary cooperation teams, and carry out life and death education starting with healthcare professionals.
