Addressing healthcare needs in an inaugural family medicine clinic in a core city in Japan: Mixed-methods research.

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
Background: There exists little research elucidating the benefits of family medicine clinics for community with ample specialist healthcare resources. Methods: We conducted mixed-methods research. Within the inaugural family medicine clinic, the following data was collected during the initial 2 months: (i) newly identified healthcare needs among scheduled outpatients; (ii) management of outpatients with complex health and social needs; and (iii) provision of home-visit care. Newly detected health care needs were summarized qualitatively using a summative content analysis. Patients' complexity was quantitatively scored using the Japanese version of the Patient Centred Assessment Method. Results: Physicians identified 156 new needs and 13 complex cases. The complexity of patients receiving home-visit care was high. Conclusions: This study demonstrates that an inaugural family medicine clinic adeptly addressed a diverse spectrum of patients' healthcare needs.
