Co-designing laryngectomy accessible information to support the development of an education and training package for community healthcare professionals: experiences and reflections from multiple stakeholders.
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. 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
backgroundLaryngectomy is complete surgical removal of the voice-box, resulting in permanent and life-changing functional and physical alterations for people and their families. There are approximately 460 people who have a laryngectomy every year in England. After laryngectomy people need ongoing support at home following hospital discharge. However, community-based healthcare professionals often lack specialist laryngectomy skills and have limited access to laryngectomy education or training. Current education and training resources for community-based professionals are difficult to navigate and there is lack of consistency in the quality and content of the information provided. MAIN BODY: To begin to address this gap, we brought together people with a laryngectomy, healthcare professionals, a designer and creative agency, to develop a 'back to basics' animation and infographic for laryngectomy. We report the outline of the concept and iterative, collaborative, development of the animation, as well as personal reflections from key stakeholders involved in the project. The future direction and use of the animation and infographic is also explored.
conclusionThis project demonstrates value of collaborative working in the development of an animation and infographic; the basis of the idea being born out of identified gaps in the research. Moving forward, the animation and infographic will be used in co design workshops to shape a community focused education and training package for healthcare professionals supporting people with a laryngectomy. Following this, the animation and infographic will be shared more broadly with healthcare professionals, individuals living with a laryngectomy, and the wider public. These resources have the potential to enhance clinical practice, empower people living with a laryngectomy with clear and accessible information, and raise awareness within the community. Ultimately, this work aims to support more informed, confident, and compassionate care for those living with a laryngectomy.
