Take Back Primary Care.
Article in Journal of general internal medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Despite being the largest medical specialty, primary care is in crisis. There is a national shortage of more than 20,000 primary care physicians, and more are leaving the field each year either through retirement or otherwise than the number of graduating residents entering it. Thus, this shortage will grow largely due to relatively low salaries and adverse health system issues that lead to widely documented physician dissatisfaction and burnout. Yet primary care is a critical component of health care, the portal through which most patients enter health systems and receive both primary and specialty care. Because health systems are heavily dependent on their diminishing specialty, primary care physicians have the power and the obligation to their patients to mandate changes in how they are treated and compensated and how they practice medicine. Suggestions on how they can use this power to positively impact their profession and make it more attractive are provided.
