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

objectiveCurative treatment of low-risk prostate cancer (LR-PCa) does not improve cancer specific survival and active surveillance (AS) is recommended. Although AS is cost-effective and reduces treatment-related complications, it requires psychosocial support. Research on psychosocial interventions specifically focused on men undergoing AS is limited. Aim of this study is to reach consensus amongst relevant stakeholders on selecting interventions offering psychosocial support to PCa patients during AS.

methodsIn accordance with the RAND/UCLA method, a modified Delphi approach was used to establish consensus on selecting interventions. During phase one, interventions were identified through a literature review and open survey among all participants. During phase two, three consensus rounds were conducted to rate potential interventions and obtain statistical consensus. The IQ healthcare consensus tool was used to calculate statistical consensus.

resultsAfter the first consensus round, 31 participants scored individual interventions on relevance using a 9-point Likert scale resulting in the selection of six interventions. During the second consensus round 13 discussion items were reviewed during a focus group. After the third consensus round, seven additional interventions were selected by 23 participants.

conclusionsIn total, 13 interventions were selected for inclusion in a support program. This included four interventions within the domain information and education, three within coping and support, one intervention within physical wellbeing and four within the domain lifestyle.
