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

Background: The Cirrhosis Care Alberta (CCAB) Project has created an expert-guided educational video for patients with decompensated cirrhosis. The effect of this video on improving disease-related knowledge in patients with decompensated cirrhosis has yet to be determined. Methods: In-patients with decompensated cirrhosis were prospectively recruited between November 2022 and August 2023. A pre-post-intervention design employing a questionnaire on managing complications of decompensated cirrhosis was used to evaluate whether the CCAB educational video was effective in improving disease-related knowledge, the primary outcome. Baseline knowledge was defined as preintervention questionnaire scores. Learning was defined as the difference between postintervention and preintervention questionnaire scores. Follow-up occurred 30 days when the same questionnaire was readministered. Univariate and multivariate regression analyses evaluated if any participant demographics and disease-related characteristics predicted baseline knowledge or learning. Results: Fifty participants were included. Study participants were predominantly biologically male (62%), aged 40-75 (78%), and had an average of 2.4 (SD: 2.8) prior cirrhosis-related hospitalizations. The mean baseline knowledge score among participants was 62% (SD: 17.3). The mean questionnaire scores following the educational video rose to 72.5% (SD: 20.2%, Conclusion: The CCAB educational video is effective in improving disease-related knowledge scores. Further investigation evaluating this effect on clinical outcomes is needed.
