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

backgroundThe incomplete collection of health data is a prevalent problem in healthcare systems around the world, especially in developing countries. Missing data hinders progress in population health and perpetuates inefficiencies in healthcare systems.

objectiveThis study aims to identify the factors that predict the intention of physicians practicing in community health centres of Bamako, Mali, to collect data exhaustively in medical registries.

designA cross sectional study.

methodIn January and February 2011, we conducted a study with a random sample of thirty two physicians practicing in community health centres of Bamako, using a questionnaire. Data was analyzed by using descriptive statistics, correlations and linear regression. MAIN OUTCOMES MEASURES: Trained investigators administered a questionnaire measuring physicians' sociodemographic and professional characteristics as well as constructs from the Theory of Planned Behaviour.

resultsOur results showed that physicians' intention to collect data exhaustively is influenced by subjective norms and by the physician's number of years in practice.

conclusionsthe results of this study could be used as a guide for health workers and decision makers to improve the quality of health information collected in community health centers.
