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

purposeThe few studies about primary care based controlled substance safety committees (CSSC) to date have been primarily quantitative, focused on patient outcomes and lacked contextual data around their implementation. The purpose of this study is to qualitatively identify barriers and facilitators to the use of CDCs guidelines around opioid prescribing and the implementation of controlled substance safety committee in a primary care practice.

methodsTen semistructured interviews were conducted with primary care clinicians in an academic medical practice. Potential barriers and facilitators to the uptake and use of the CDC opioid guidelines and the practice's CSSC were coded and analyzed against the Capability, Opportunity, and Motivation framework for Behavior change framework (COM-B).

resultsSix key themes were identified around uptake of the CDC guidelines. In general, the CSSC addressed some of the capability barriers around the guidelines but had limited impact on increasing motivation to follow the guidelines. We found the same recommendation in the guidelines could have differing impact on prescribing behavior.

conclusionsSimply promoting guidelines may be insufficient, especially for those viewing them as rules rather than recommendations. Our findings underscore the fact that guidelines are merely a starting point, not an endpoint of implementation.
