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

backgroundAcute intoxication-type inborn errors of metabolism (IT-IEM) such as urea cycle disorders and non-acute IT-IEM such as phenylketonuria (PKU) and their treatment have a major impact on the life of affected children and families. Yet patients' and parents' perspectives on the burdens of IT-IEM and its effects on everyday functioning and well-being have rarely been addressed. Patient- and observer-reported outcomes (PROs/ObsROs) are critically important to evaluate and target health care and treatment efficacy. Therefore, it is mandatory to define PROs/ObsROs relevant to patients with IT-IEM, their families, and health care professionals and to provide valid, standardised and reliable measuring instruments. To achieve consensus we performed a two-round, electronic-based modification of a Delphi survey including 27 parents of affected children, nine teenage patients and 35 health professionals (physicians, nutritionists, psychologists). The final set of PROs/ObsROs was discussed and defined in an online consensus meeting with a subsample of three health professionals, three parents and two patients. For this final set, appropriate measures (PROMs/ObsROMs) were assembled.

resultsSeventeen PROs/ObsROs constitute the final core set for paediatric IT-IEM. They cover social (e.g. social participation), emotional (e.g. positive affect), and disease-related aspects (e.g. attitude towards treatment) of patients' lives as well as the experience of parents (e.g. parental stress).

conclusionTo promote a holistic treatment approach, this consensus-driven set of relevant PROs/ObsROs should be incorporated into daily IT-IEM care and considered as the key psychological outcomes in clinical trials. We have identified existing-psychometrically and contextual-appropriate PROMs/ObsROMs with open access to facilitate this process.
