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

backgroundPerson-centered care is needed to effectively support workers with chronic health conditions. Person-centered care aims to provide care tailored to an individual person's preferences, needs and values. To achieve this, a more active, supportive, and coaching role of occupational and insurance physicians is required. In previous research, two training programs and an e-learning training with accompanying tools that can be used in the context of person-centered occupational health care were developed to contribute to this changing role. The aim was to investigate the feasibility of the developed training programs and e-learning training to enhance the active, supportive, and coaching role of occupational and insurance physicians needed for person-centered occupational health care. Information about this is important to facilitate implementation of the tools and training into educational structures and occupational health practice.

methodsA qualitative study was conducted, with N = 29 semi-structured interviews with occupational physicians, insurance physicians, and representatives from occupational educational institutes. The aim was to elicit feasibility factors concerning the implementation, practicality and integration with regard to embedding the training programs and e-learning training in educational structures and the use of the tools and acquired knowledge and skills in occupational health care practice after following the trainings and e-learning training. Deductive analysis was conducted based on pre-selected focus areas for a feasibility study.

resultsFrom an educational perspective, adapting the face-to-face training programs to online versions, good coordination with educational managers and train-the-trainer approaches were mentioned as facilitating factors for successful implementation. Participants underlined the importance of aligning the occupational physicians' and insurance physicians' competences with the educational content and attention for the costs concerning the facilitation of the trainings and e-learning training. From the professional perspective, factors concerning the content of the training and e-learning training, the use of actual cases from practice, as well as follow-up training sessions were reported. Professionals expressed good fit of the acquired skills into their consultation hour in practice.

conclusionThe developed training programs, e-learning training and accompanying tools were perceived feasible in terms of implementation, practicality, and integration by occupational physicians, insurance physicians and educational institutes.
