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

objectiveTo identify and analyze users' perceptions of access and use of health services and actions to monitor Systemic Arterial Hypertension (SAH) in Primary Health Care (PHC).

methodsThis is a qualitative, descriptive and exploratory study based on 38 semi-structured interviews conducted with users selected from Basic Health Units (BHUs) in a large municipality in the state of Rio de Janeiro. Thematic content analysis was used to identify the empirical categories.

resultsUsers faced difficulties in scheduling appointments, accessing laboratory test results and medicines at the BHU. Home visits by Community Health Workers (CHWs) intermediated demands for appointments and tests. There were no health education activities and follow-up by the nursing team was residual. The doctor was the main reference, although links were weakened by turnover.

conclusionThe study identified the need to expand access to basic medicines and test results at the BHU, the role of nurses in promotional, preventive and clinical actions, the scope of CHWs' work in health education and interprofessional work.
