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

Prior work regarding patient education has identified the importance of using learning theory and educational models to develop and deliver content that will improve patient outcomes. Current literature appears to examine implementation of teaching strategies without clear identification of educational principles. This review aimed to identify educational principles and theory currently utilized in the planning and delivery of patient education in disorders of thrombosis and hemostasis. The majority of articles reviewed evaluated the impact of educational interventions on patient outcomes; links between educational principles and changes in outcomes was lacking. Few articles clearly referenced theory in development of patient education; fewer focussed on the population of interest. The lack of literature demonstrates the need for multi-center collaborative research aimed at generation of an improved level of evidence regarding the most effective theoretical framework for the development, delivery and evaluation of patient education for patients with disorders of thrombosis and hemostasis. Once a theoretical framework for patient education is developed and tested, the unique contribution of patient education to both knowledge and clinical outcomes can be robustly evaluated.
