Implementing the information prescription protocol in a family medicine practice: a case study.
Article in Journal of the Medical Library Association : JMLA, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
questionCan an information prescription protocol be successfully integrated into a family medicine practice seeking to enhance patient education and self-management?
settingMilton Family Practice, an outpatient clinic and resident teaching site of the University of Vermont and Fletcher Allen Health Care, is located in a semirural area fifteen miles from main campus.
objectivesThe objectives were to increase physicians' knowledge and use of information prescriptions, sustain integration of information prescription use, and increase physicians' ability to provide patient education information.
methodsMethods used were promotion of the National Library of Medicine's Information Rx, physician instruction, installation of patient and provider workstations, and a collaborative approach to practice integration. MAIN
resultsA post-intervention survey showed increased physician knowledge and use of the Information Rx protocol. Support procedures were integrated at the practice.
conclusionsSustainable integration of Information Rx in a primary care clinic requires not only promotion and education, but also attention to clinic organization and procedures.
