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

Objective: Medical disputes and patient satisfaction are related to inappropriate prescribing practices. We aim to investigate the clinical application of prescription reviews for traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Method: TCM prescriptions performed prescription reviews in 372 patients from the year 2019 to 2020 were set as the observation group and those from the year 2017 to 2018 without prescription reviews as the control group ( Result: No difference was found in age and gender between the control group and the observation group. The number of irrational TCM prescriptions from the year 2017 to 2020 was 6, 8, 2, and 3, respectively, with the percentage of 3.725%, 4.480%, 1.201%, and 1.446%. The irrational rate in the observation group (1.344%) was significantly lower than that in the control group (4.106%). Specifically, a higher rate of nonstandard prescriptions was revealed in the control group as compared with the observation group. Moreover, a reduced incidence of medical disputes was revealed in the observation group relative to the control group accompanying with the increased degree of patient satisfaction. Conclusion: Prescription reviews have high application value in the management of Chinese pharmacies, which can improve the rationality of prescriptions, increase patient satisfaction, and reduce medical disputes.
