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

Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is flourishing in family medicine. This issue presents a collection of POCUS articles exploring its use among family physicians, including specific applications and barriers to implementation. In addition, 4 articles present screening considerations for common problems - anxiety, social determinants of health, cervical cancer, and prostate cancer. Common practice management issues include urine drug screening in the care of patients with opioid use disorder, improving Human Papilloma Virus vaccination rates, and enhancing patient portal use in low resource settings. A series of articles comments on family medicine workforce issues, discussing ongoing challenges facing the discipline. Two helpful clinical reviews round out the issue - well water safety and combination medications for hypertension.
