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

Introduction: Positive Health (PH) is a health approach that expands the definition of health, emphasizing social, psychological, and personal perspectives. PH helps healthcare professionals to provide insight into a patient's perceived health and gives them insight into their health improvement. PH is acknowledged for improving healthcare and quality of life, but the practical implementation of PH and the necessary skills for healthcare professionals remain unexplored. The overall aim of this review is to explore and map the Positive Health skills needed for healthcare professionals in a variety of healthcare settings. Methods: A scoping review was conducted. PubMed, Embase, and CINAHL were searched using the key term "Positive Health" AND "healthcare professionals" AND "skills" including synonyms and related keywords. Initial searches yielded fewer relevant studies than expected. Therefore, a revised strategy incorporated "Shared Decision-Making (SDM)" AND "healthcare professionals" AND "skills" to enhance the search. The methodological quality was assessed. A convergent integrated approach synthesized findings and identified overarching skills. An overview was made to visualize the skills. Results: After screening, 15 studies were included. The five overarching skills are: Discussion: An overview of PH skills was obtained, where the comparison with SDM led to more foundation and more strategies for PH skills. Increasing PH skills in clinical practice may improve implementation. Further research is needed to explore if PH and SDM are mutually reinforcing.
