The main features of physician assistants/associates and insights for the development of similar professions in China.
Review in Journal of evidence-based medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
The physician assistant/associate (PA) profession originated in the United States; PAs play an active role in alleviating the shortage of health and medical resources and improving the quality of medical care. This position has been introduced in and developed by many countries. Based on extensive literature research, this article summarizes the three main features of PAs, namely, that there is professional education for training PAs, the PA is an independent and exclusive professional type and PAs assist doctors in completing medical work. With reference to the innovative concept of the PA profession, this article summarized the existing "assistant" position in China that is similar to the PA position, compared it with the three features of PAs, revealed the shortcomings of the existing "assistant" position in China, provided a reference for the development of relevant careers in China, and provided solutions for solving the problems of medical and health resources in China.
