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

objectivesTo estimate the effect of California's prescription drug monitoring program's (PDMP) registration mandate on use of the PDMP.

methodsWe evaluated the effect of California's mandatory PDMP registration law by fitting time series models on the percentage of clinicians registered for California's PDMP and the percentage of clinicians who were active PDMP users (users who created ≥ 1 patient prescription reports in a given month) from 2010 through 2017. We also compared PDMP use among early PDMP adopters (clinicians who registered > 8 months before the mandatory registration deadline) versus late adopters (clinicians who registered ≤ 8 months before the deadline).

resultsMandatory registration was associated with increases in active PDMP users: 53.5% increase for prescribers and 17.9% for pharmacists. Early adopters were 4 times more likely to be active PDMP users than were late adopters.

conclusionsMandatory registration was associated with increases in PDMP registration and use, but most new registrants did not become active users. Public Health Implications. Mandatory PDMP registration increases PDMP use but does not result in widespread PDMP usage by all clinicians prescribing controlled substances.
