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
Introduction: India launched a national initiative named Health and Wellness Centres (HWCs) in 2018 to provide population-based primary care including for the non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in rural areas. The current study assesses whether operationalization of HWCs improved the detection of NCDs and increased the share of public sector facilities in providing NCD services. Methods: Two rounds of household surveys were conducted in rural Chhattisgarh in 2019 and 2022. With a focus on NCDs, the household survey covered a representative sample of individuals above the age of 30 years - 2760 individuals in 2019 and 2638 in 2022. Multi-variate regression analysis was carried out to determine effects of HWCs on identification of NCDs and utilization of public sector services. Results: The population covered by HWCs had 25% greater chance of being identified with NCDs as compared to the population without HWCs (AOR = 1.25, Conclusion: The HWCs showed effectiveness in increasing detection of NCDs at the population level and bringing a larger share of NCD patients to utilize public sector services. They can prove to be a crucial architectural correction for improving primary care service delivery for NCDs and other population health needs in India.
