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
Patient involvement in the improvement of health care is important for the best long-term treatment outcomes. Our objective is to assess patient satisfaction with offered care service and to identify parameters which influence the adherence to long-term therapy. A prospective single-center study based on the administration of a structured interview to multiple sclerosis (MS) patients attending our MS Centre with mild and moderate disabilities. The interview regarding clinical parameters, quality of life and satisfaction of care service was structured in three parts with multiple-choice answers to close- or open-ended questions. Patient satisfaction was evaluated by the concordance between the level of patient attention and judgment regarding the services offered. The impact of all variables on the adherence to therapy and on the perceived utility of treatment was evaluated. The concordance between patient attention and judgment on health care services resulted statistically significant for almost all parameters. The perceived utility of treatment was significantly correlated to patients feeling confident in the clinical staff, to their perception of being involved in therapeutic decision (p<0.05), and associated to therapy adherence (p=0.0001). In a multivariate model, the adherence to therapy resulted associated to possibility of choosing the physician (p=0.037) and inversely to therapy duration (p=0.001). Our conclusion reveals that, to improve the adherence to long-term therapy and the perceived utility of treatment, a particular attention should be devoted to physician-patient relationship.
