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

UK neurology has many different models of provision and a shortage of essential clinical staff. Services are sometimes unsatisfactory and there is much variation and inequality, especially in areas outside London where there are far fewer consultants. Some hospitals have much better staffed and resourced neurological services than others which may have far less provision or even no neurology service at all. There is no national strategy or agreed model of service delivery - local areas have evolved individual arrangements, often dictated by consultant availability. We describe, with clear operational details, a neurology network model in a large population, with outcomes. In many areas with limited resources it could, by re-organisation of current services, be considered instead of existing separate, variable and potentially inequitable local arrangements.
