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

backgroundEffective and efficient measurement of person-centred healthcare practice is essential for evaluating organizational systems and individual practice, thus ensuring that healthcare systems are aligned with the principles of person-centredness. Despite its benefits, such as improved patient outcomes and healthcare efficiency, measurement of person-centred practice (PCP) is challenging, due to its multidimensionality. The Person-centred Practice Inventory-Staff (PCPI-S) is an instrument specifically designed to measure PCP cultures from the perspectives of staff.

methodsThis study uses a non-parametric, item-response theory approach to present the development of a shorter, more adaptable instrument called PCPI-S Short Form (PCPI-S SF). It also aims to raise the issue of social desirability bias in responses and provides solutions.

resultsMokken scale analyses were performed on datasets collated from seven countries (N = 3773). Psychometric analyses informed by PCP resulted in a 23-item questionnaire with satisfactory reliability estimates. The PCPI-S SF demonstrated strong cross-cultural applicability and unidimensional item structures, confirming its suitability for use across diverse healthcare contexts. Items in the new questionnaire were locally independent, scalable, and demonstrated monotonicity. DISCUSSION AND

conclusionThe PCPI-S SF is an effective, resource-efficient measure of PCP, which preserves the conceptual underpinnings of the original PCPI-S with a high degree of psychometric fidelity. The development of the PCPI-S SF represents a significant advancement in the measurement of PCP. As healthcare systems continue to prioritize PCP, the PCPI-S SF offers a valuable global resource for ongoing evaluation and improvement of practice, ultimately supporting better patient care and staff well-being.
