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

Culture influences an individual's perception of "health" and "sickness". Therefore, cultural competence assessment of healthcare professionals is very important. Existing assessment scales have limited application in India due to the nation's rich cultural diversity and heterogeneous healthcare streams. This study was undertaken to develop and validate a cultural competence assessment tool for healthcare professionals in India. A cross-sectional study using convenience sampling was conducted following all standard steps among 290 healthcare professionals in India. Item reduction was followed by estimation of validity and reliability. Responses were recorded on a five-point Likert scale, ranging from strongly disagree to strongly agree. The resultant tool, named Cultural Competence Assessment Tool-India (CCT-I) showed an acceptable internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha =0.734). Inter-rater agreement was 81.43%. Face, content, and construct validity were demonstrated. There was no statistically significant difference in cultural competence between the healthcare streams based on years of clinical experience. There was statistically significant difference between streams of healthcare (
