"You just have to be careful how you do it": A qualitative study of the Healthwise decision aid for older drivers.
Article in Traffic injury prevention, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
objectiveDecisions about driving retirement are difficult for older adults, their families, and health care providers. A large randomized trial found that an existing online Healthwise decision aid decreased decision conflict and increased knowledge about driving decisions. This study sought to discover how, when, and where the tool might be most effective for older drivers, their family members, and their health care providers.
methodsWe used one-on-one, semistructured interviews (June-December 2023) to explore perspectives on the content of the Healthwise online driving decision aid and its potential use. Participants were health care providers or subject matter experts in older driver research or policy. Transcribed interviews were coded and analyzed with a team-based approach to identify emerging themes.
resultsAcross interviews (16 health care providers; 15 experts), emerging themes related to considerations (barriers, benefits, and settings for use) that were (1) individual or interpersonal or (2) institutional or cultural, as well as feedback on (3) decision aid content and structure. Findings included concerns over agism and damaging provider-patient relationships, along with identified benefits of integrating tools into electronic health records and a need for consolidated, easy-to-access resources for both providers and patients.
conclusionAttention to individual, interpersonal, institutional, and cultural factors may enhance the use and dissemination of an online decision aid about driving, as well as its effectiveness in decision making. Future work should include views of additional stakeholders and studies on implementation of decision aids into real-world settings.
