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

purposePatients with advanced cancer are usually willing to participate in shared decision-making (SDM), but in clinical practice, patient participation is easily ignored. This study aimed to analyze the current SDM status of advanced cancer patients and related factors.

methodsIn quantitative research, we administered a cross-sectional survey to 513 advanced cancer patients in 16 tertiary hospitals in China. A sociodemographic information questionnaire, the Control Preference Scale (CPS), and Perceived-Involvement in Care Scale (PICS) were used to analyze current SDM status and influencing factors. Our qualitative research was based on the Ottawa Decision Support Framework (ODSF), and 17 advanced cancer patients were interviewed to explore their perceptions of SDM.

resultsOur quantitative results show that patients' actual and expected decision-making participation differed; statistically significant influencing factors were age, insurance, and whether patients were worried about the therapeutic effects. We also found that dynamic decision-making mode changes, disease information acquisition, decision-making participation obstacles, and family members' roles affected patients' SDM through qualitative interviews.

conclusionAdvanced cancer patients' SDM in China is dominated by sharing and continuously fluctuates. Influenced by Chinese traditional culture, family members play an important role in SDM. In clinical work, we should pay attention to the dynamic changes in patients' participation in decision-making and the role of family members.
