Trial report in Atencion primaria, 2001. 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
objectiveThe objective is evaluating the efficacy of the educative intervention to primary care physicians, about the accurate dyslipidaemia management in population between 65 and 75 years old with hypercholesterolemia.
designSimple-blind random clinical trial.
settingArea 10 primary care (National Institute of Health of Spain). STUDY SUBJECTS: . Thirty eight primary care physicians of Area 10. Seven hundred and five patients between 65 and 75 years old with dyslipidaemia.
interventionsClinical session to physicians about the dyslipidaemia management, reinforced with the shipment of the accurate management criteria and bibliographic information. Physicians were followed up for one year.
resultsThe therapeutic management varied (p = 0.03) in the experimental group after educative intervention. The dietetic therapeutic increased 6.56 percent (p = 0.21), the therapeutic with HMG-CoA-reductase inhibitors increased 4.16 percent (p = 0.36), and the therapeutic with fibric-acid derivates decreased 4.22 percent (p = 0.24). The criteria fulfillment rate of accurate dyslipidaemia management did not vary (p = 1.0) in the control group (44.3 percent) and there was hardly any variation (from 49.4 percent to 49.1) in the experimental group (p = 0.96). The fulfillment rate decreased 7,56 percent (p = 0.25) when dyslipidaemia managed with only diet. The fulfillment improved 17,17 percent (p = 0.14) if dyslipidaemia managed with fibric-acid derivates, and it improved 17,58 percent (p = 0.06) if was managed with HMG-CoA-reductase inhibitors.
conclusionsThe educative session to primary care physicians reinforced with the shipment of the received information, is not likely to relieve the criteria fulfillment rate of accurate management of population between 65 and 75 years old with hypercholesterolemia.
