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

Until now, health care systems have been compared by means of macro criteria, an approach that might have its shortcomings in assessing the actual benefits that health care systems may provide for people. Therefore, a new health care index is presented which combines individual assessments of health care systems with objective macro health care system criteria. Two steps are taken for furthering this approach: First, a data-driven procedure is used to determine the influence of self-rated health on confidence in the health care system through macro criteria of health care systems. The macro indicators are weighted accordingly and created into an index, which adds to the subjective level of the link. In a second step, the constructed health care index is tested in a multilevel model with self-rated health being the dependent variable, to avoid tautological conclusions. The index is able to reduce country differences, decrease explained variability and has a statistically significant effect without affecting other estimates.
