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

backgroundPromoting patient participation in decision-making aims to maintain the partnership between doctors and patients, reflect the patients' goals, values, and preferences, and achieve patient-centered care. Realizing patient-centered care, shared collaboration between doctors and patients, and the decision-making process that considers the patients' priorities and goals are the keys to high-quality health care. Therefore, it is indispensable to analyze the patients' willingness to participate in the decision-making process and related participation needs regarding anticoagulation treatment for patients undergoing valve replacement. PURPOSE: To analyze the patients' willingness to participate in the decision-making process and the participation needs of patients undergoing mechanical cardiac valve replacement in the process of anticoagulation therapy to provide a basis for promoting patients' participation in decision-making.

methodsUsing phenomenological research methods, data were collected through semistructured interviews. Patients were interviewed after mechanical valve replacement from June to August 2021 in a Grade A hospital in Nanjing. Data were analyzed according to the Colaizzi phenomenology method.

resultsThree major themes were identified from the data: strong willingness to participate but low actual participation, supportive needs, and family members' participation.

conclusionsThis study guided interventions to encourage patients who underwent heart valve replacement to participate in the decision-making process. From the patient's perspective, obtaining support in the decision-making process and caregiver enthusiasm is important. This study prompted thoughts about the use of auxiliary tools and provided a reliable basis for constructing decision-making auxiliary programs to guide clinical practice.
