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

As value-based reimbursement continues to grow as a means of compensation in the US healthcare system, ensuring effective evaluation of patient care is becoming increasingly important. The aim of this study was to systematically collect and review data to identify potential patient bias based on a nonmodifiable patient characteristic, payer type, in patient satisfaction scores from an academic dermatology clinic setting. This retrospective study used Press Ganey self-reported, deidentified patient satisfaction surveys completed at Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center's outpatient dermatology clinic between January 1, 2010, and December 21, 2021, with a total of 21,408 surveys included in the study. The results found the self-pay/uncompensated group reported the highest mean satisfaction score (96.25%), followed by other government (94.76%), Medicare (94.34%), commercial (92.82%), workers' comp (88.10%), and Medicaid (82.78%). Analysis of variance resulted in an F value of 3.02 (
