Article in Atencion primaria, 2011. 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
aimTo describe the attitudes of General Practitioners (GPs) towards depression in Primary Health Care Centres.
designCross-sectional study based on the application of a standard questionnaire. SETTING AND
participantsA total of 112 GPs from all of the 20 Primary Health Care Centres in the Tarragona-Reus Primary Care Area (Catalan Health Institute). MEASUREMENTS: A Spanish adaptation of Depression Attitudes Questionnaire was used.
resultsA total of 88.4% of doctors agreed there was an increase in the number of depressive patients in recent years. Around half of the GPs thought that depression in Primary Health Care Centres are due to the adversities of life, but 72.3% considers that there is a biological root in severe depressions. A large majority (81.2%) of doctors believed that antidepressants used in Primary Care are efficient and the majority values psychotherapy as a useful therapeutic option. There is an agreement in the role of nursing staff when attending depressed patients. The role of psychiatric referral when a satisfactory result is not obtained in Primary Care is recognised. Although 64.3% of doctors consider that dealing with depressed patients is hard work, but 57.1% feel comfortable and only 19.7% think it is an unpleasant job.
conclusionsIn general, there is a favourable predisposition to deal with depression in Primary Care where training and organisational initiatives can be introduced to improve clinical outcomes of depression in Primary Care.
