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

In the wake of the dominance of evidence-based thinking, clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) within the country's health system have gained a key position in recent years and playing an important role in enhancing all functions of this system. However, the absence of a standard model, the inadequacy of existing documentation for designing clinical guidelines, data obtained from the national self-care project (IMPROVE-CARE), the Persian Registry of Cardiovascular Disease, the national priorities declared by the Iranian Network of Cardiovascular Research, and most importantly, the order from the Ministry of Health, all highlight the necessity of establishing a structure followed by the creating of a standard model for the development of guidelines, and subsequently, the creation of Iranian clinical guidelines. This policy brief article discusses the process of establishing the structure and the produced content and presents the necessary policies for the development of national clinical guidelines.
