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
Few studies have focused on the inhalation instruction in pharmacies which have the crucial role on the inhalation instruction. The aim of this study is to evaluate the level of knowledge and the degree of interest for asthma inhalation instruction methods among pharmacists receiving prescription from clinics. We conducted questionnaire surveys to chief pharmacists of 39 consecutive pharmacies belonging to HANSHIN Dispensing Pharmacy in Hyogo, Japan at July 2011. We obtained valid responses from 35 pharmacies. Among them, 14 pharmacies dealt with prescriptions mainly from the clinics (clinic pharmacies) and 21 pharmacies dealt with prescriptions originated from hospitals (hospital pharmacies), including 13 pharmacies that dealt with prescription filled by respiratory physicians (specialty hospital pharmacies). Although the inhalation instruction at the first visit was provided at every pharmacy, only 54.3% of all pharmacies provided inhalation instructions after the second visit. Compared to 0% of the clinic pharmacies, 40% of the specialty hospital pharmacies visually checked the patient's inhalation procedure after the second visit. Visual confirmation of the inhalation technique, especially in the clinic pharmacies, might play an important role in maintaining treatment adherence.
