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

introductionA previous systematic review published in 2012 focused on the use of health services based on the Andersen model. Extending this review, we will exclusively focus on systematically synthesising longitudinal studies examining the determinants of healthcare use based on the Andersen model. Therefore, our aim of this systematic review is to provide an overview of longitudinal observational studies investigating the predictors of healthcare use explicitly using this model. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: We will search three electronic databases (Medline, PsycINFO and CINAHL). Furthermore, reference lists will be searched manually. Longitudinal observational studies will be investigating the determinants of healthcare use (in terms of use of outpatient physician services (like general practitioner's visits or specialist visits in total) and hospitalisation). We will exclude disease-specific samples. Data extraction will focus on methods (eg, assessment of healthcare use), sample characteristics and main findings. A suitable tool will be used to assess the study quality. Study selection, data extraction and evaluation of study quality will be conducted by two reviewers. The findings will be presented by means of figures, summary tables, narrative summaries and meta-analysis (if possible). ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: No primary data will be collected. Therefore, approval by an ethics committee is not required. Our findings are planned to be published in a peer-reviewed journal. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER: CRD42020193198.
