Perceptions around concordance--focus groups and semi-structured interviews conducted with consumers, pharmacists and general practitioners.
Article in Health expectations : an international journal of public participation in health care and health policy, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
backgroundAchieving concordance by identifying beliefs about illness, treatment and medicine-taking should impact positively on behaviour and consumer satisfaction with respect to treatment, and health outcomes may be improved.
objectiveTo explore, in the Australian context, beliefs and expectations of general practitioners (GPs), consumers and pharmacists in relation to concordance to allow further exploration of the implementation of principles of concordance in Australia.
designQualitative analysis of focus group and semi-structured interview data. SETTING AND
participantsFocus groups were held with seven consumers and nine pharmacists and, in-depth, semi-structured interviews were held with 10 GPs between February and May 2003, in Brisbane (Australia).
resultsThis explorative study identified a variety of issues. Consumers expressed the need for more input from health professionals - being given more information on their treatments and conditions, more time spent in discussion, and establishing a system where harmonious relationships between health professionals could take place, which would result in a more consumer-friendly health care system. The main issues voiced by the pharmacists were about the idea of organizing the health care system in a way that would accommodate more quality information sharing between all partners. GPs' issues included better and unlimited information-sharing, having more time to promote quality in health care and receiving remuneration for increased verbal contact with other health care professionals. Suggestions were made about ways to achieve concordance by improved information-sharing and shared decision-making.
conclusionThe data from this study will lead to the development of models to explore and attempt to incorporate principles of concordance in Australian pharmacy and medical practice.
