Patient Safety Functions of State Medical Boards in the United States.
Review in The Yale journal of biology and medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The state medical board system in the United States plays a crucial role in promoting patient safety and is a primary vessel through which policymakers are able to regulate healthcare. The system's origins, and how it has evolved in tandem with the practice of medicine generally, have heavily shaped its current structure and scope of activities. In particular, the ethos of a largely self-regulated profession has corresponded to a heavy physician influence. In light of this influence, maintaining legitimacy continues to require careful efforts by the state boards to avoid any perceived professional protectionism.
