Developing the Right for You? Intervention to improve engagement in community-based palliative care: a feasibility study and pilot test.
Article in The journals of gerontology. Series A, Biological sciences and medical sciences, 2025. 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
backgroundCommunity-based palliative care (CBPC) can improve symptom management and quality of life at reduced costs (through hospitalization prevention) for seriously ill older adults. However, CBPC services are underutilized due to multi-level factors including patient perceptions and lack of systematic methods for providers to identify and communicate the potential value of these services.
methodsThe purpose of this study is to describe the co-design of Right for You? (R4U?) intervention materials and to present pilot test results of feasibility and preliminary effectiveness testing. R4U? was designed to improve how a CBPC program (offered as part of a Medicare Advantage health plan) is presented to seriously ill older adults and their caregivers.
resultsOur findings suggest the co-designed R4U? was acceptable to clinicians and when pilot-tested demonstrated preliminary effectiveness with a seven percentage-point increase in enrollment in the CBPC program during the intervention period (May-September 2024).
conclusionsOur preliminary findings support the acceptability and feasibility of using tailored R4U? as a way of increasing interest and enrollment in a CBPC program. Additional research is needed to determine if observed increases in CBPC enrollment are sustainable over time and scalable in other settings to improve enrollment in CBPC.
