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

Incorporating patient-reported outcomes (PROs) into clinical practice is advocated by some. However, the benefits remain uncertain. Almario et al. examined the impact of a gastrointestinal (GI) version of the patient-reported outcomes measurement information system (PROMIS) on patient satisfaction, perception of doctors' interpersonal skills, and the likelihood of shared decision-making. Patients were allocated to complete GI PROMIS prior to their outpatient appointment, or usual management. Overall, uptake of GI PROMIS was poor and there was no difference in any outcome measure between those completing the questionnaire and those receiving usual management, suggesting PROs may be of limited utility in this setting.
