1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveThis survey set out to describe patient registries available in the country, to determine their security features, data confidentiality, extent of outputs produced and data quality of the registries.

methodsA cross sectional survey was carried out via a self administered questionnaire.

resultsThere were 21 patient registries which covered important chronic diseases in health. There was a wide variety in duration since development, size, numbers of centre reporting, funding source and outputs but not much difference in data security and patient confidentiality amongst the registries. There were impressive outputs seen (reports, presentations and journal articles) and high quality data despite most registries being recently developed.

conclusionThe quality of registries in Malaysia is of high standard but its' major benefits have yet to be realised.
