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

This article presents results of the research conducted with the use of participatory methods by the Faculty of Architecture, Poznan University of Technology on architectural design of healthcare facilities. The studies concerned the needs of patients and hospital staff in an orthopaedic and rehabilitation hospital. Preferences and expectations of all the users of healthcare facilities should be considered as early as at the stage of planning and designing. The hospital profile and the type of its users predetermine the architectural design in the area of the building functions, its internal circulation and interior design. Participation of the user in the process of compiling design recommendations is a chance for a designer to confront the original assumptions with expectations and to adjust relevant solutions to factual needs of the users. This study, undertaken in a regional setting, provided an in-depth exploration of staff's experiences of hospital space to indicate possible spatial improvements.

methodsThe research was conducted on the basis of a case study of a renowned regional orthopaedic and rehabilitation hospital in Poznan, Poland. Rapid assessment methods and questions were examined to describe current approaches and synthesize results. Semi-structured interviews and thematic analysis identified staff and patient's experiences.

resultParticipation of hospital staff and patients resulted in design recommendations of high utility value. It was found that the two groups to a certain extent proposed similar recommendations; however, certain proposals submitted by the two groups were totally opposite.

conclusionthe research highlighted the importance of the active research methodology that engages the researcher/expert in the action and critical reflection process. Such a methodology can successfully underlie the formulation of accurate recommendations.
