1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Shared decision-making supports person-centred care. Our team of Inuit-led and/or -focused organizations and researchers field-tested a strategy called Not Deciding Alone to support health decision-making. Guided by aajiiqatigiingniq, a principle of collective decision-making and consensus-building, we co-produced a mixed-methods study to: (1) train Qikiqtani region community health representatives (CHRs) with a workshop, (2) develop a radio show and survey, and (3) assess the radio show with Inuit community members in the health system. We evaluated participant experiences using forms, case studies, and an online survey. The workshop was delivered to 13 CHRs; seven (54%) provided evaluation data. All (100%) reported positive experiences with the content, activities, and facilitation. One (14%) said the workshop was too short; four (57%) agreed there was enough discussion time. Six (86%) reported new learning. Three radio show events were held with 33 survey respondents, the majority women (
