The problem
Intervention: Comic-enhanced participant information sheet summarising key trial details
Who it was tested with: Parents of children aged 5-15 years and their children participating in a clinical trial.
Children or communities are compared with a group that did not receive the intervention, or followed over years. This is the design that best separates what the intervention did from everything else that changed.
"Parents of children aged 5 to 15 years were randomised to receive either comic-enhanced or standard participant information materials, then their comprehension of key trial details was assessed using modified versions of the Quality of Informed Consent score (parents) and Deaconess Informed Consent Comprehension Test (children)." This is a randomised controlled trial design with a comparison group and objective comprehension measures, making it experimental evidence, though the lack of significant difference in comprehension paired with clear preference gains suggests mixed rather than conclusive positive outcomes for the core problem.
Study does not measure whether format preference or improved communication actually changes participation decisions or outcomes in clinical trials. Country context not specified.
