Using Narratives to Correct Forecasting Errors in Pediatric Tracheostomy Decision Making.
Trial report in Medical decision making : an international journal of the Society for Medical Decision Making, 2021. 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
purposeParents who face goals-of-care tracheostomy decisions may lack an understanding of challenges affecting their child's and family's long-term quality of life (QOL) to accurately forecast possible outcomes for decision making. We sought to examine whether and how parents' narratives of the child's and family's long-term QOL influence parental tracheostomy decisions and forecasting.
methodWe recruited US adult Amazon Mechanical Turk participants (
resultsControlling for individual characteristics, participants in the Baby QOL and Baby QOL + Family QOL conditions were less likely to choose tracheostomy as compared with the control (odds ratio [OR] = 0.38 and 0.25, respectively,
conclusionNarratives clarifying long-term implications of pursuing tracheostomy have the potential to influence forecasting and decisions. Narrative-based interventions may be valuable in other situations in which forecasting errors are common.
