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

Children living in rural areas encounter unique, significant barriers to the receipt of health care, including pediatric specialty care. In this article, the authors review these barriers and evaluate the advantages and limitations of various access tools intended to better connect children to specialty care. They highlight the potential of some access tools to increase rural primary care physicians' skill and involvement in their patient care, but also the risks of increasing rural primary care providers' workload and responsibilities without increasing their resources. They contextualize these benefits and risks within the quintuple aims advanced by the Institute of Healthcare Improvement.
