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

Objective: To analyze Patient Safety Non-Technical Skills (PS NTSs) among consultants and residents for improving PS culture. Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out among medical doctors (MBBS) working as Fellows of College of Physicians and Surgeons (FCPS) including residents and consultants in Medicine, Surgery and allied specialties in three tertiary care hospitals in Rawalpindi, Lahore and Sialkot from January to March 2023. Data was collected by face to face as well as using online Hospital Survey on PS Culture (HSOPSC) questionnaire. A total of 384 participants were enrolled in this study after taking informed consent. Average positive % responses with comparative responses among residents and consultants were calculated using appropriate statistical tests. Results: Positive response for Teamwork = 80.3%, System Based Practices = 61%, Communication within & inter units = 55.8% and 53.5% were the top three observations. Respondents with > five years of work experience were likely to practice PS 1.98 times > with one-five years (AOR = 1.98, 95% CI = 1.20 - 3.63, p value = 0.03). Working of respondents for 20 to 39 hours per week is protective towards PS (AOR=0.048, 95% CI = 0.006 - 0.390, p value = 0.04). Respondents working in specialty for one to five years are 5.44 times > other work durations to follow PS (AOR 5.447, 95% CI = 2.052 - 14.4, p value = 0.001). Conclusion: Poor adverse event reporting, lack of non-punitive responses by hospital administration and differences in PS NTS perceptions and practices among respondents were observed.
