A Hypothetical Model to Predict the Potential Impact of Government and Management Support in Implementing Integrated Management of Childhood Illness Practices.

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
objectivesDespite broad adoption and implementation of Integrated Management of Childhood Illness (IMCI) in more than 100 countries, childhood mortality and morbidity rates continue to prevail. This calls for further investigation to identify the factors that prevent actual application of IMCI-recommended clinical practices. This study tests a hypothetical structural model to investigate potential role of government and healthcare policymakers on improving implementation and application of IMCI-recommended practices in clinical setting.
methodsThe study was carried out at Sur and Ibra Nursing Institutes in Oman, in June 2016. We used six pre-tested and validated constructs for developing a hypothetical structural model. The constructs were used as underlying variables to examine the probable influence of government and policymakers on actual application of IMCI-recommended practices. Data were collected through structured questionnaires, which designed to measure healthcare professionals' perceptions. Each construct was pre-loaded with three sub-constructs. Cronbach's alpha (CA) was used to calculate the internal consistency and reliability.
resultsFactor loadings for each item in the model were ≥ 0.700. CA values for all the studied constructs were > 0.600. The average variance extracted values for all the constructs were > 0.500.
conclusionsThe findings support the hypothetical structural model and highlights governments could play a significant role in ensuring that IMCI strategy is not only implemented, but also its recommended practices are applied in clinical setting.
