Comparison of video-recorded consultations with those in which patients' consent is withheld.

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
backgroundVideo-recorded consultations are widely used for research in general practice. Recently, video recordings have begun to be used for the purposes of general practitioner (GP) registrar assessment. It is unknown, however, whether consultations in which patients withhold consent for recording differ from those that are recorded.
aimTo compare clinical problems and demographic characteristics of adult patients who consent to the video recording of consultations with those who withhold consent.
methodThis was prospective study of 538 adult patients consulting 42 GPs, based in practices throughout Leicestershire. Each patient attended a surgery session with one of the 42 GPs between April 1995 and March 1996. Clinical presentations and demographic characteristics of patients consenting and withholding consent to the video recording of their consultations were compared. GPs' perceptions of whether patients in these two groups were distressed/upset or embarrassed were also compared.
resultsA total of 85.9% (462/538) of adults consented to video recording, and 14.1% (76/538) withheld consent. Multiple logistic regression revealed that patients who presented with a mental health problem were more likely to withhold consent to recording (odds ratio 2.5, 95% confidence interval 1.4-4.6). Younger patients were also more likely to withhold consent to video recording. Additionally, where patients' consent was withheld, GPs perceived patients to be more distressed or embarrassed.
conclusionYounger patients and those suffering from mental health problems are more likely than others to withhold consent to being video recorded for research purposes in general practice. The implications of this study for the assessment of registrar GPs using video-recorded consultations are discussed.
