Internists' Misconceptions About PPIs: Increasing Knowledge and Implementing Guidelines.
Article in The American journal of gastroenterology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Misconceptions about proton-pump inhibitor (PPI) adverse effects were common among internists, and many had changed prescribing. Among 4 scenarios representing a risk spectrum for upper gastrointestinal bleeding, 86% of physicians properly chose discontinuing PPI for a minimum-risk patient with previous gastroesophageal reflux disease, but 79% inappropriately chose discontinuing PPI for a high-risk patient with a peptic ulcer history taking low-dose aspirin. Physician self-assessment is often inaccurate. Time barriers to learning and unanswered clinical questions, especially drug issues, are common. Unscientific information can influence both physicians and patients. Strategies for increasing the guideline implementation include making scientific information available more rapidly and systematically monitoring guideline use.
