Community pharmacy density at national and subnational levels in New Zealand.

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
As community pharmacies provide essential pharmaceutical and public health services, they should be geographically accessible to populations globally. This study aimed to explore community pharmacy density and associated factors at national and subnational levels in New Zealand (NZ). Publicly available, aggregate data for 2020 were sourced. Community pharmacy density (number of community pharmacies per 10,000 population) was calculated at the national level and at the subnational level using territorial authority (TA) areas. Associations between four TA characteristics (type [cities or districts], island [North or South], older age and deprivation score) and continuous community pharmacy density were assessed via linear regression. There were 1,154 community pharmacies. Numbers of community pharmacies per 10,000 population were 2.27 for NZ, 2.25 and 2.33 for the North and South Islands, respectively, and 2.45 and 1.95 for cities and districts, respectively. The only TA characteristic associated with community pharmacy density was TA type: cities had significantly higher community pharmacy density than districts (adjusted
