Patients' experience of chronic illness care in a network of teaching settings.
Article in Canadian family physician Medecin de famille canadien, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 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
objectiveTo evaluate chronic illness care delivery from the patient's perspective and to examine its main correlates.
designCross-sectional, descriptive study using questionnaires and medical chart review.
settingNine teaching family practices in Quebec.
participantsA total of 364 patients with diabetes, hypertension, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. MAIN OUTCOMES MEASURES: Score on the Patient Assessment of Chronic Illness Care (PACIC) questionnaire, which evaluates the patient's perspective on the care received based on the chronic care model (CCM); patients characteristics (sex, level of education, number of chronic illnesses); patient-physician relationship (relational continuity, interpersonal communication assessed from the patient's perspective); and interdisciplinary care and technical quality of care abstracted from patients' medical charts.
resultsThe mean PACIC score obtained (2.8 out of 5) indicates that, on average, CCM-concordant care "generally did not occur" or occurred only "sometimes" in this network of teaching practices. However, with a mean technical quality-of-care score of nearly 80%, physicians in this network showed a high degree of adherence to clinical guidelines for the chronic illnesses under study. Patient education level lower than high school was negatively associated with PACIC scores, while positive associations were found with male sex, number of chronic illnesses, relational continuity, interpersonal communication, interdisciplinary care, and technical quality of care.
conclusionPatients with less education reported receiving less CCM-concordant care. The patient-physician relationship was the strongest correlate of PACIC scores, while interdisciplinary care and technical quality of care had modest contributions.
