General dental practice and improved oral health: is there a win-win for both the professional establishment and government?
Article in British dental journal, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
General dental practice in the United Kingdom has been in a state of unrest for over two decades, with practitioners having been confronted by two contract changes. The latest contract change of 2006 resulted in much disquiet, and services continue to be piloted in order to develop a contract that satisfies the needs of both government and the profession. Within this context, this paper explores the issues surrounding the present situation. To date, the profession has expanded service provision into the private market which has resulted in an exaggerated inverse care provision. This could be perceived as a move towards a retail philosophy and away from healthcare. In order to restore an equitable balance of care provision, the authors present possible solutions that could satisfy both parties.
