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
backgroundTo provide better patient care, it is very important for the physicians to be willing to accept clinical pharmacy services (CPSs).
objectivesTo explore physicians' perceptions and overall attitudes toward CPSs in China, to determine the dimensions of factors underlying the physicians' perceptions of different types of CPSs, and to analyze the determinants of physicians' overall attitudes.
settingInpatient units of urban general hospitals in China.
methodsSelf-administered questionnaires were distributed to 990 physicians in the inpatient units of 22 general hospitals in seven cities between June and October 2012. Descriptive statistical analysis, factor analysis, and logistic regression were used.
main outcome measuresThe physicians' comfort levels and their overall attitudes toward CPSs, as well as the dimensions of factors underlying their perceptions of CPSs. The predictors of overall attitudes included demographics, the characteristics of self-perceived workload, the frequency of communication with clinical pharmacists, and the perception variables for the different types of CPSs.
resultsAmongst the 646 questionnaires retrieved, 81.3 % of the physicians had positive overall attitudes. Factor analysis resulted in four factors, with a cumulative explained variance of 69.0 %, as follows: clinical pharmacists' support of physicians' decisions; auxiliary work; prescribing; and independent decision-making activities. The results of logistic regression showed that the degree of comfort with clinical pharmacists' support of physicians' decisions had the greatest influence on physicians' overall attitudes toward CPSs.
conclusionFrom the perspective of improving physicians' overall attitudes, the prioritization strategy of developing CPSs in China should focus on the role of clinical pharmacists within the decision support system for medication management, thus encouraging clinical pharmacists to interact more frequently with physicians at the ward level.
