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

Background: Pharmacogenomics, a key component of precision medicine, aims to improve healthcare outcomes. As pharmacists play a pivotal role in this evolving field, an assessment of their preparedness to apply pharmacogenomics is imperative. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, a validated questionnaire (Content Validity Ratio > 0.741, Results: This study included 514 pharmacists and pharmacy students. Knowledge scores were moderate and correlated with academic level and pharmacy school attended. Most participants were open to providing pharmacogenomics testing and interpretation through pharmacy services, but the majority demonstrated concerns about potential misinterpretation of test results and the resulting patients' anxiety. Students cited limited accessibility, while pharmacists identified the lack of standardised guidelines as the main roadblock. Conclusion: This study highlights the need for education to prepare pharmacists for their role in pharmacogenomics. Despite positive attitudes from pharmacists, addressing knowledge gaps, the low confidence in recommending pharmacogenomics tests, and concerns about implementation are essential.
