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

introductionWe have developed a new framework to assess shared decision-making (SDM) as a tool to improve patient satisfaction. This framework is based on a "preference fit" index that relates SDM to patient treatment preferences and patient satisfaction in a sample of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients in Japan.

methodsWe surveyed 500 RA patients in Japan and explored the interactions between the treatment preference fit index, SDM, and overall patient satisfaction.

resultsOur new preference fit index reveals significant impact on patient satisfaction: the better the fit between SDM and patient preferences, the higher the patient satisfaction with the current treatment. Patients treated with biologic agents were more satisfied. Patients suffering from depression or migraines scored significantly lower both on our preference fit measure and for overall patient satisfaction.

conclusionThe association between depression and a low treatment preference fit suggests that depression may pose challenges to SDM and that doctors in Japan are less attuned to the SDM preferences of depressed patients.
