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

Reports have shown that ambulatory primary care practices that include patients and families in their quality improvement efforts have many benefits including better relationships and interactions with patients. In this paper, we describe our experience of involving our patients, family, and staff who are members of or Patient and Family Advisory Council (PFAC) in our quality improvement efforts related to patient experience. For a year, members of the PFAC suggested creative implementations to our office policies and workflow to improve satisfaction scores on the Clinician and Group Consumer Assessment of Health care Providers and Systems survey in key areas: information about delays, wait times in clinic, and convenience of appointments.
