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

Introduction: In Chile, access to health care for deaf individuals faces communication and legal barriers. Objective: To reveal the experiences of deaf people from a southern province of Chile regarding their health care access between February 2022 and February 2023. Materials and Methods: A qualitative phenomenological study was conducted with deaf individuals who had accessed health services in the past year. Semi-structured personal interviews were conducted with the support of Chilean Sign Language interpreters. Results: Participants aged 24 to 30 reported communication difficulties with health personnel, exacerbated by the lack of interpreters or facilitators trained in sign language, forcing them to rely on third parties and technological aids. Discussion: The barriers identified in health care access align with existing literature; however, the limited number of studies on the Chilean context restricts local comparisons. Conclusion: The findings highlight access barriers and issues in health care delivery, impacting care quality. Key challenges include improving physical spaces, communication strategies, health literacy, training, and culturally competent care.
