Involvement: lessons from experience - a personal journey.
Article in Research involvement and engagement, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
This article traces a personal journey in participation over half a century. It explores the origins of this journey, its beginnings in an in-depth local study of public participation in planning which set a broader agenda. It puts personal experience from a service user perspective in a broader research, ideological and policy context, explores the changing context of public and service user involvement; its widening scope and impact and developing understandings about it. The article highlights the emerging importance of inclusive involvement and ways of helping to achieve it as well as key innovations in participation – in its different aspects and policy fields. It considers different approaches to participation and introduces the idea of it as an interactionist project which addresses both the personal and political; biography and history.
