Toward the Implementation of Shared Decision-Making in Korean Clinical Practice: Study Protocol for a Foundational Research Project.
Review in Journal of Korean medical science, 2026. 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
Shared decision-making (SDM) is an essential component of patient-centered care, yet its implementation in South Korea remains limited due to a persistent physician-centered clinical culture. This project, supported by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, aims to establish a foundation for nationwide SDM implementation by developing a culturally adapted Korean SDM model and creating a framework to support its institutionalization and widespread clinical adoption. This four-year project consists of five interlinked work packages (WPs) organized into two phases, each lasting two years. Using a multi-method approach-comprising nationwide surveys, systematic literature reviews, and psychometric validation studies-we will assess the current landscape (WP1) and develop standardized SDM evaluation tools for primary stakeholders (WP2). A clinical research data management system will be designed and implemented to support data integration and monitoring (WP3). The central component involves developing a Korean SDM conceptual model and corresponding implementation strategies (WP4). Economic evaluations and legal analyses will inform the design of a pilot reimbursement framework to support sustainable system-level integration (WP5). The project is expected to produce the following outcomes: i) an analysis of domestic and international SDM trends; ii) validated SDM assessment tools and guidelines tailored for the Korean context; iii) a standardized and interoperable SDM data management system; iv) a culturally grounded Korean SDM model with evidence-based implementation strategies; and v) policy proposals, including a reimbursement model, to facilitate system-wide adoption. This work will provide the theoretical, empirical, and policy basis required to advance SDM within the Korean healthcare system. By addressing cultural characteristics and structural barriers, the resulting SDM model and policy recommendations are expected to support the sustainable institutionalization of SDM and strengthen patient autonomy and the quality of clinical practice in Korea.
