Article in BMC health services research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundThis research aims to assess the level of awareness and readiness for the utilization of Electronic Prescription System (EPS) among medical professionals and patients, as well as to identify their opinions regarding the advantages and disadvantages of this system.
methodsThe study was conducted in Russia among 423 respondents, including medical professionals and patients, with an average age of 40 years.
resultsThe awareness of EPS among medical professionals (20%) and patients (45.7%) is notably low. The majority of physicians possess only basic computer skills (62.5%). In contrast, pharmaceutical workers (60%) and medication consumers (45.7%) exhibit a confident level of computer proficiency. EPS is evaluated as more reliable (100% of physicians) and convenient (93.3% of pharmacists) compared to paper-based prescriptions. The results highlight the necessity of educating medical professionals and patients on the use of EPS. The study confirms the low awareness and readiness for the utilization of EPS among medical professionals and patients. However, the EPS is perceived as more reliable and convenient compared to paper prescriptions.
conclusionsThis research holds practical significance for the development of strategies for implementing EPS and enhancing the preparedness of medical professionals and patients for their use.
