Article in Patient preference and adherence, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Purpose: This study aimed to survey and analyze the preferences for pharmacist-managed clinic among urban residents in China. Materials and Methods: A discrete choice experiment was conducted in Nanjing, China. A D-efficient fractional factorial design was used to generate the questionnaire. Three models were used to investigate each patient's strength of preference and preference heterogeneity. The relative importance for each treatment attribute was also determined. Results: 156 usable questionnaires (of 228 questionnaires sent out) were received. Respondents preferred pharmacist-managed clinics with the following characteristics: good pharmacists' knowledge and clinical medication practice competency, lower consultation fees, a dedicated consultation room, physician-pharmacist joint clinic, with pharmacists' knowledge competency receiving the highest priority. Latent class analysis revealed three classes (Experiential Type, Content Type and Economic Type) were identified based on respondents' preferences for pharmacist-managed clinics. Conclusion: The respondents were willing to choose a PMC relative to the current situation. When deciding on a pharmacist-managed clinic, residents are driven by pharmacists' competency, consultation fee, availability of consultation rooms and collaborative care or independent pharmacist service. Differences in patients' preferences identified in the study provide information on pharmacist-managed clinics that meet residents' expectations.
