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

Background: Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a common, underdiagnosed genetic condition associated with premature cardiovascular disease. Despite the availability of Canadian Cardiovascular Society (CCS)/Canadian Pediatric Cardiology Association (CPCA) guidelines, awareness and uptake among primary care providers remain limited. We developed and evaluated a continuing medical education (CME) course to improve adherence to pediatric dyslipidemia guidelines across British Columbia. Methods: We conducted a quasiexperimental pre-/post-knowledge translation study. The CME course was delivered in-person at BC Children's Hospital and remotely to urban and rural family physicians and pediatricians. Pre-course and 1-month post-course surveys assessed self-reported confidence and adherence to CCS/CPCA recommendations. Results: Likelihood of screening pediatric patients for FH improved significantly after the course ( Conclusions: The CME course effectively promoted CCS/CPCA guideline uptake and improved self-reported clinical practices. Expanding delivery to include trainees, nurses, and pharmacists may enhance impact and reach.
