Factors Affecting the Appropriate Angiography Prescription in Iranian Hospitals.
Article in Health care science, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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: Inappropriate angiography prescriptions impose substantial financial and clinical burdens on healthcare systems. This study aimed to develop a comprehensive model for appropriate angiography prescription by examining supply-and demand-side factors in public and private hospitals in Iran. Methods: Data were collected from domestic and international databases covering the period from 1998 to 2023 and analyzed through exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. Results: Results indicated that physician density and information asymmetry were the most influential factors in the public sector, while physician income and patient insistence dominated in the private sector. Patient preferences and intolerance of uncertainty were key demand-side determinants. Conclusions: The findings support policy interventions targeting behavioral and structural drivers of inappropriate prescriptions.
