Intimacy, Vulnerability, and the Imperfect Art of Patient-Centered Self-Disclosure.
Article in Annals of family medicine, 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
During the vulnerable, painful time around my diagnosis with a chronic illness, my physician shared with me a story from her own life. Her act of self-disclosure was profoundly impactful, reminding me that the gulf between myself and other people was not as vast as it felt. In this essay, I share my story and the conclusions I've drawn from it in the years since, using my tools as a philosopher and bioethicist. I explore what "patient-centered self-disclosure" might look like. I hope that these reflections might deepen our understanding of the intimacy and vulnerability of receiving medical care, and of the power of physician self-disclosure.
