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
Neurologic disorders, now a leading cause of disease burden globally, have further added to the growing concerns of access to care, especially given the anticipated 19% shortfall of neurologists. There is a pressing need to improve access and decrease appointment wait times. We led a departmental initiative to bridge the access gap. We focused on template management, leveraging advanced practice providers (APPs), and provision of timely access for new patients. Over 2 years, the total patient volume and the new patient volume increased by 34% and 32%, respectively. Visits per clinic session grew by 21% for APPs. The number of new patients seen within 10 days grew from 19% to 42% (123% increase) for internal referrals and from 21% to 43% (100% increase) for all referrals. This article reviews our strategies in improving patient access.
