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

There has been considerable discussion on and recommendation of the idea that Practice Professional Development Plans (PPDPs) should develop the whole practice as a healthcare resource, integrating and improving the educational process. In this study the PPDP concept was launched in a practice in Dorset, following the Bournemouth PPDP framework. The practice linked the educational activities of individuals, small working groups and the whole team to meeting the needs of the patients using a continuous quality improvement approach. The learning needs of the practice team were identified and learning actions were planned leading to a better response to patients' needs.
