Enablers to successful patient and public involvement in Palliative Care Research: Qualitative perspectives of public members and Program Coordinators.
Article in Palliative medicine, 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
backgroundDespite policy and health service imperatives for public involvement to be embedded within palliative care research, this practice is not commonplace. Few empirical studies have sought to explore and evaluate models of public involvement for palliative care.
aimTo explore experiences of public involvement within palliative care, and to identify enablers for successful models of involvement.
designAn exploratory qualitative design was utilized. Semi-structured interviews were conducted via zoom or telephone, and interview transcripts were subjected to inductive thematic analysis. SETTING/
participantsPurposive sampling of 23 participants with experience of public involvement in palliative care or related areas, across different health institutions in Australia and the United Kingdom, including public members and public involvement program coordinators.
resultsTwelve public members and 11 program coordinators described their experience with public involvement in a palliative or related healthcare setting. Three themes emerged relating to successful involvement (1)
conclusionsThis study reveals enablers that potentially shape the extent and effectiveness of public involvement in palliative care. Integrating these enablers has implications for future models of public involvement in palliative care and potential for enhanced research outcomes.
