Decision Support Preferences Among Hispanic and Non-Hispanic White Older Adults With Chronic Musculoskeletal Pain.
Article in The journals of gerontology. Series B, Psychological sciences and social sciences, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
objectivesDespite broad recognition that social networks play a key role in the management of chronic musculoskeletal pain (CMP), little is known about when and why older adults with CMP choose to involve others in treatment decisions. This study investigates the types (i.e., informational, emotional, and instrumental) and sources (i.e., formal and informal) of support Hispanic and non-Hispanic White CMP patients desire and receive when making decisions about their pain care.
methodSemi-structured interviews were conducted with Hispanic and non-Hispanic White older adults with CMP (N = 63) recruited from one medical center and one senior center in New York City. Interviews were transcribed and then analyzed using content analysis.
resultsCMP patients sought network members who supported their emotional well-being throughout the decision-making process. When considering high-stakes treatment decisions, participants selectively involved individuals who had similar pain conditions or first-hand experience with the procedure. Participants' perceptions of the decision-making process were contingent upon the congruence between the decision they made and the support they received for it. For Spanish-speaking participants, positive perceptions were linked with satisfactory language competence by their providers. On the other hand, lack of language competence among providers hindered Spanish speakers' ability to obtain adequate informational support. DISCUSSION: Results reveal the importance of empathic patient-provider exchanges across diverse patient populations and cultural sensitivity for Spanish-speaking patients. Findings suggest that social networks beyond the patient-provider dyad influence patients' decision-making satisfaction.
