The influence of decisional conflict on treatment decision in pelvic organ prolapse-data from the SHADE-POP trial.

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
purposeWomen with symptomatic pelvic organ prolapse are facing the choice between several treatment options and a potentially difficult decision. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of decisional conflict, patient characteristics and other decision-related factors on treatment decision in women with pelvic organ prolapse.
methodsData from the SHADE-POP trial were used. Women with symptomatic pelvic organ prolapse who visited their gynaecologist for (new) treatment options were included. In all participants, demographical characteristics and validated questionnaires concerning decisional conflict (DCS), shared decision making (SDM-Q-9), information provision (SCIP-B), anxiety and depression (HADS) and satisfaction with care (PSQ-18) were collected 2 weeks after the visit. Analyses were performed using univariate and multivariate linear and logistic regression analyses.
resultsNinety six women with pelvic organ prolapse facing a treatment decision were included. An increase in decisional conflict as experienced by patients was related to the choice of more conservative treatment, such as pelvic floor muscle training or pessary, instead of surgery (p = 0.02). Shared decision making, better information provision and satisfaction with care were related to lower levels of decisional conflict (p = 0.001).
conclusionDecisional conflict in women with pelvic organ prolapse favours conservative treatment instead of surgery. Gaining knowledge on the effect of decisional conflict, patient characteristics and other decision-related factors on treatment decision in pelvic organ prolapse will be a step towards a better-guided treatment decision and better patient-reported outcomes for this group of patients.
