Evidence-based periodic health examination of adults. Memory aid for primary care physicians.
Trial report in Canadian family physician Medecin de famille canadien, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
problem addressedThere is currently no peer-reviewed evidence-based memory aid that incorporates recommended prevention guidelines to direct family physicians during periodic health examination of adults. OBJECTIVE OF PROGRAM: To devise a memory aid to guide primary care physicians during periodic health examination of adults that incorporates the most current evidence-based recommendations of the Canadian Task Force on Preventive Health Care and of the United States Preventive Services Task Force. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: This memory aid is a two-page easy-to-use form that lists evidence-based maneuvers for adults aged 21 to 64 that should be carried out during periodic health examinations. This article describes the form and discusses the evidence currently available for the maneuvers mentioned on the form. To validate the memory aid, results of qualitative assessment in one academic and 15 community settings are presented.
conclusionThis user-friendly memory aid was developed to provide primary care physicians with rigorously evaluated guidelines in an accessible format for use during periodic health examination of adults.
