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

backgroundIn neonatology, parents play a central role as guarantors of the new-born's autonomy. Notifying parents about their infant's status in neonatal critical care is an integral part of the care. However, conveying this information can be very difficult for physicians and the neonatal medical team. The objective of this work is to assess the dimensions and dynamic processes of critical care communications in neonatal intensive care in order to enhance the development of theoretical and applied knowledge of these discussions.

methodsThis qualitative, descriptive study was conducted on critical care new-borns less than 28 days-old who were hospitalized in a neonatal intensive care unit. Verbatim communications with the parents were recorded using a dictaphone.

resultsThe verbatim information had five themes: (a) critical care, (b) establishing the doctor-patient relationship, (c) assistance in decision making, (d) Socio-affective and (e) socio-symbolic dimensions. Our recordings underscored both the necessity of communication skills and the obligation to communicate effectively. Analysis of the dynamics of the communication process, according to the categories of delivering difficult information, showed few significant differences.

conclusionPhysician training needs to include how to effectively communicate to parents to optimize their participation and cooperation in managing their care.
