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

objectiveThis study aims to construct a training course and quality evaluation index system for chronic disease Medication Therapy Management service (MTMs) that is suitable for China's national conditions. It seeks to provide tools and a scientific foundation for assessing the quality of MTMs training.

methodsDrawing from domestic and international literature and combining with the practice of chronic disease medication management by Chinese pharmacists, a preliminary framework for the evaluation index system was established. The Delphi method was used to solicit expert opinions, evaluate and improve the evaluation index system. Indicator weights were determined by using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP).

resultsBoth rounds of expert inquiry achieved a positive degree of 100% (18/18 experts). The authority coefficients (Cr) were 0.90 and 0.91 respectively. The Kendall coordination coefficients (Kendall's W) of the second and third-level indicators for the first round of inquiry were 0.230 and 0.189, while those for the second round were 0.326 and 0.213. Finally, an MTMs training course and training quality evaluation index system was structured, comprising 3 first-level indicators, 11 second-level indicators, and 39 third-level indicators.

conclusionThe evaluation index system constructed in this study is scientifically robust and rational, offering a foundation to standardize MTMs training practices effectively.
