Impact of primary care and public health integration of chronic conditions in China: a protocol for a prospective multicentre cohort study.

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
introductionThe prevalence of chronic conditions is increasing. Given that the majority of chronic patients are managed by primary healthcare providers, there is a need to integrate primary care with public health to address the prevailing situation and enhance patient outcomes. The purpose of this study is to establish, implement and evaluate an integrated primary care and public health model in China for patients with chronic conditions.
methodsThis prospective, multicentre and observational study will be conducted at 12 township hospitals on patients (n=7200) diagnosed with chronic conditions (hypertensive, diabetic or stroke). Participants were divided into two groups: pilot areas and mainstream areas follow-up groups. The primary outcome will be the difference in the proportion of controlled chronic conditions among the two groups. Secondary outcomes will be the differences in mean change in diastolic and systolic blood pressures, fasting glucose, total cholesterol and triglyceride, death from any cause and participant-reported physical and psychological health status. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Ethics approval was obtained from the Ethics Committee of Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology. We plan to publish the results of this study in a peer-reviewed journal article.
