Shared decision-making in orthopaedic surgery.
Article in Clinical orthopaedics and related research, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 44 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
backgroundThe process of clinical decision-making and the patient-physician relationship continue to evolve. Increasing patient involvement in clinical decision-making is embodied in the concept of "shared decision-making" (SDM), in which the patient and physician share responsibility in the clinical decision-making process. Various patients' decision aid tools have been developed to enhance this process. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES: We therefore (1) describe decision-making models; (2) discuss the different types of patients' decision aids available to practice SDM; and (3) describe the practice and early impact of SDM on clinical orthopaedic surgery.
methodsWe performed a search of the literature using PubMed/MEDLINE and Cochrane Library. We identified studies related to shared decision-making and the use of patients' decision aids in orthopaedics. The search resulted in 113 titles, of which 21 were included with seven studies on patients' decision aid use specifically in orthopaedics.
resultsAlthough limited studies suggest the use of patients' decision aids may enhance decision-making, conclusions about the use of these aids in orthopaedic clinical practice cannot be made and further research examining the best type, timing, and content of patients' decision aids that will lead to maximum patient involvement and knowledge gains with minimal clinical workflow interruption are needed.
conclusionIn clinical practice today, patients are increasingly involved in clinical decision-making. Further research on SDM in orthopaedic surgery examining the feasibility and impact on practice, on patients' willingness and ability to actively participate in shared decision-making, and the timing and type of patients' decision aids appropriate for use is still needed.
