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
introductionPatient engagement (PE) helps healthcare professionals to collaborate with patients to work together to improve health outcomes. However, the studies of PE and its relationship with health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is very rare in Hong Kong (HK) and China. The aim of this study was to assess the PE level and its association with HRQoL in the general outpatient clinic (GOPC) in Hong Kong.
methodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted in a GOPC in 2017. Patient engagement index (PEI) was used as a valid and reliable instrument to assess the PE level in the primary care setting. EQ-5D-5L HK Chinese version was used to evaluate the patients' HRQoL. ANOVA, ANCOVA and robust linear regression were used to analyse the data.
results686 patients successfully completed the survey (response rate =64%). The mean utility of EQ-5D (0~1.0) was 0.92. Male, highly educated and younger respondents got higher utility. For PEI (0~100), the mean score was 37.02, whereas female (38.03), highly educated and younger respondents performed better. The regression model indicated that there is a positive relationship between PE and HRQoL (beta =2.66, SE =5.11,
conclusionThis is the first study in HK to assess the PE level and its relationship with HRQoL in the primary care setting. The result indicated that improve PE could bring a positive influence on the HRQoL. However, the PE-HRQoL relationship might be deeply influenced by an individual's physical, psychological or social characteristics.
