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

objectiveThe study reports findings and patients' characteristics that predict their experiences of primary health care (PHC) in Nigeria.

methodsA cross-sectional survey of 1680 patients attending 24 primary health centers in 6 states from the 6 geopolitical subdivisions in Nigeria. The patient evaluation scale was used for exit survey of patients' experiences with PHC. Categorical findings and mean ratings on experiences of PHC were analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics.

resultsThe mean response rate was 98%, and most respondents were female (73%) and married (72%). A higher proportion of patients gave positive feedback on their relationships with staff (84%) than they did available space in the waiting area (60%). Higher self-rated health status and nonpayment for care at the point of receipt were consistent predictors of positive patient experiences from the multilevel analysis.

conclusionStudy reported findings and drivers of patient experiences with PHC. Aspects of PHC showing less positive patient experiences and some patients' factors associated with these are amenable to change and can form the focus of quality improvement actions.
