1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

STUDY

objectivesTo describe the development and assess the usability of a patient decision aid (PtDA) prototype designed for newly diagnosed, treatment-naïve, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients.

methodsA web-based PtDA was developed which focuses on two first-line treatment options: continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and mandibular advancement splints (MAS). Development was guided by the International Patient Decision Aid Standards (IPDAS). Usability was assessed in individuals at high risk for OSA based on the STOP-Bang questionnaire, the patient acceptance of decision aid, the System Usability Scale (SUS), and content analysis of open-ended user feedback.

resultsEighty eligible participants completed the survey. The mean age was 54 years (SD = 8.9), 60 % of the sample was male, 78 % were university-educated, and 64 % were employed full-time. Participants took an average of 13.7 min (SD = 9.6) to complete the PtDA, with 39 participants choosing CPAP, 25 choosing MAS, and 16 choosing no treatment. The mean SUS score was 78.22 (SD = 15.13). The majority of individuals thought the PtDA was useful in making a decision (n = 77, 96 %) and would recommend it to others (n = 77, 96 %), while a third (n = 26, 33 %) thought it was slanted towards CPAP.

conclusionsThe SUS indicated that the PtDA was acceptable and useful for participants. And useful for participants. User feedback has been used to improve the prototype, which will now undergo further testing in patients at the Vancouver Sleep Disorders Clinic.
