Through the patient's eyes - the importance of person-centred care in oral cancer.
Article in British dental journal, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
This opinion paper highlights the value which patients place on the delivery of a person-centred approach within dentistry. Excerpts from a qualitative interview are used to illustrate the level of importance afforded to the soft skills, as viewed through the eyes of a patient with experience of oral cancer. The role of the general dental practitioner in supporting patients with oral cancer is highlighted. Attention is drawn to the importance of the dentist-patient relationship and how this can support identification of risk; delivery of preventative advice; early detection and onward referral; and the provision of ongoing pastoral support. Continuity of care is identified as a key factor in delivering high quality person-centred care where the focus should be on the individual and not the disease.
