Knowledge and Preference of Filipino COPD Patients on Advance Care Planning: A Cross-sectional Survey.
Article in Acta medica Philippina, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objectives: To explore the current experiences and perspectives of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with advance care planning (ACP). Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among patients diagnosed with COPD in the Philippine General Hospital. Results were illustrated using descriptive statistics. Results: A total of 90 patients were interviewed and included in the analysis. Nearly all patients were unfamiliar with the terms ACP (95.55%), end-of-life care (99.89%), and do-not-resuscitate order (100%). The majority expressed a desire to have ACP discussions (94.44%) which were not viewed as distressing and were deemed beneficial (96.67%). Patients who were employed were more likely to express readiness to sign legal papers. Patients living with their nuclear family or living alone, and those with higher COPD assessment test (CAT) scores were more likely to relegate health care decisions to their doctors. Conclusion: Most patients with COPD in our cohort are unfamiliar with ACP and have not received ACP discussions. Most think that it will improve healthcare and quality of life. Some demographic and clinical factors may make patients more likely to engage in ACP-related activities.
