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.

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.

Abstract

objectiveThis sub-study assessed the quality of a proxy measure for alcohol-related consultations in general practice in Denmark. The quality assessment was conducted by comparing the number of alcohol-related consultations registered by health care professionals (HCP) in patient records, the proxy measure, with the number reported by patients through questionnaires completed immediately after consultations in general practice. The assessment included four general practices that participated in the Danish Identification and Treatment of Alcohol Problems in Primary Care (iTAPP) study and was conducted over 15 days from April to July 2024.

resultsOverall, HCPs in a sub-sample of four general practices participating in the iTAPP study registered a total of 27 alcohol-related consultations in the observation period, compared with 51 consultations reported by patients. The pattern with more patient recalls of alcohol discussed than documented by HCPs was seen across all practices in the sub-sample. We conclude that registrations in patient records may be used as a proxy measure for alcohol-related consultations in Danish general practice. Still, we cannot assume it reflects the true number of alcohol-related consultations in practice, since no direct observation was included in the sub-study.
