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

objectiveTo examine the association between frequency of mobile clinic visits and diabetes or hypertension control among patients who received regular mobile clinic care, controlling for patient sociodemographic characteristics and comorbidities.

designRetrospective cohort study using patient chart review. SAMPLE: Patients who regularly visited mobile medical clinics in Southern California ( MEASUREMENTS: The dependent variables were hemoglobin A1c and blood pressure control. The independent variable was number of visits per year. Longitudinal associations were examined using a linear mixed model or generalized linear mixed model.

resultsAmong regular mobile clinic patients with diabetes (

conclusionsThe study findings suggest that regular mobile clinic use by adults with hypertension improves blood pressure control over time. However, the frequency of mobile clinic visits had no effect on diabetes control overtime. Patients with diabetes need additional interventions to achieve hemoglobin A1c control.
