How Patient Perceptions Shape Responses and Outcomes in Inherited Cardiac Conditions.
Review in Heart, lung & circulation, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
At least one-third of adults living with an inherited cardiac condition report clinically-significant levels of psychological distress. Poorer health-related quality of life compared with population norms is also consistently reported. These outcomes are associated with younger patient age, having an implantable cardioverter defibrillator, and receipt of uncertain clinical test results, and can influence self-management behaviours, such as adherence to potentially critical life-preserving medications. According to the Common Sense Model of Illness, people use information from multiple sources to 'make sense' of their health condition, and how they conceptualise the condition can strongly influence adaptation and coping responses. Previous studies with people with inherited cardiac conditions show that illness perceptions, such as greater perceived consequences and a poorer understanding of the condition, are associated with greater psychological distress and poorer adherence to medication. The Common Sense Model provides one potential framework for identifying patients who may be more vulnerable to adverse health outcomes, and for developing early interventions to reduce the physical and psychosocial burden of these conditions. Interventions based on the Common Sense Model have successfully improved physical and psychosocial outcomes associated with other cardiac conditions, and could be tailored for use with patients with an inherited cardiac condition (ICC).
