Patient cardiovascular risk self-management: results from a randomized trial of motivational interviewing delivered by practice nurses.
Trial report in Family practice, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundTo enhance cardiovascular risk management and patients' self-management, a tailored programme to improve cardiovascular risk management was tested in a randomized trial. The presented study concerned secondary analysis.
objectivesTo explore the correlations of practice nurses' counselling skills at baseline on chronic illness care (measured with Patient Assessment of Chronic Illness Care questionnaire) and patients' self-management (assessed with Patient Activation Measure) at follow-up and to examine the effect of the tailored implementation programme on chronic illness care and patients' self-management.
methodsA two-arm cluster randomized trial was conducted in 34 general practices in the Netherlands. Counselling skills of practice nurses at baseline were abstracted from audio-taped consultations, which were assessed by Motivational Interviewing Treatment Integrity. Data of 2184 patients with established cardiovascular disease or at high cardiovascular risk were gathered at inclusion and at 6 months follow-up by a composite questionnaire. Multilevel regression analysis was applied, controlling for patient characteristics.
resultsCounselling skills of practice nurses were not associated with chronic illness care and patients' self-management scores. At follow-up, patients in the intervention group experienced less chronic illness care and were less activated in disease management than patients in the control group. The most important predictors were patients' age, gender and education level.
conclusionsThe logic model underlying the implementation programme needs to be reconsidered, because patient perceptions were neither influenced by nurses' counselling skills nor by other components of the implementation programme.
