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
backgroundUrban family physician program (UFPP) is initiated as pilot by policy makers as a main reform in future of primary health care in Iran. Despite an ongoing pilot implementation of this program from 2012, it remains a main question about providing sufficient number of general practitioners (GPs). This study aimed to investigate the factors which affect GPs' decision to join in the UFPP.
methodsIn this national cross-sectional study a sample of 666 GPs, using convenience sampling, filled a self-report questionnaire. The multivariate logistic regression was applied to explore the demographic, practice and views determinants of the tendency of GPs to join in the UFPP.
resultsMore than half of GPs (58.6%) participated in the study had a positive tendency to join in the UFPP. Older GPs (adjusted OR = 3.72; 95%CI 1.05-13.09), working in public sector (adjusted OR = 2.26; 95%CI 1.43-3.58), lower income level (adjusted OR = 6.69; 95%CI 2.95-15.16), higher economic expectations (adjusted OR = 2.08; 95%CI 1.19-3.63), and higher satisfaction from medicine profession (adjusted OR = 2.00; 95%CI 1.14-3.51) were the main factors which increased the GPs tendency to enter in UFPP.
conclusionsDecision for joining in the program is mainly affected by GPs' economic status. This clarifies that if the program can make them closer to their target income, they would be more likely to decide for joining in the program.
