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

Objective: The Our Peers-Empowerment and Navigational Support (OP-ENS) community-based participatory research study developed, implemented, and evaluated a peer navigator intervention aimed at improving health and healthcare access among Medicaid beneficiaries with disabilities. Peer navigators are community partners with physical disabilities trained to deliver structured peer support interventions that can address barriers to care. The purpose of this paper is two-fold. First, it explicates the relational work the peer navigators do with peers in delivering the intervention. Second, it illustrates how our community-based participatory approach empowered peer navigators to share their knowledge to refine the intervention. Methods: Clinical coordinator team meeting notes, critical incident documentation reports, peer navigator reflections ( Findings: Through the manualized OP-ENS intervention process, peer navigators helped peers achieve incremental successes. Peer navigators used their training and personal experiences to engage with peers and forge deep connections and relationships of trust. As a result, peers identified a wide-range of social health concerns, including poverty, social isolation, and racial and disability related discrimination that might otherwise go unaddressed. True to the principles of community-based participatory research, by fostering an equity-focused collaboration and listening to peer navigators, the project team implemented subtle but salient refinements to the intervention. Refinements included an explicit focus on social determinants of health affecting peers' health and wellbeing and supplemental trainings to help peer navigators support peers with significant mental health needs. Conclusion: The peer navigators were intentional and skilled at relationship building, thus complex elements which impact peers' health were addressed. Peer navigators were empowered to communicate their perspectives with the study team, who worked together to strengthen the intervention processes and infrastructure. This atmosphere of trust and collaboration amongst diverse stakeholders was instrumental to OP-ENS' successful implementation. Healthcare systems should consider implementing peer support interventions that are responsive to consumer input to address social determinants of health for persons with disabilities.
