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
Objective: The objective of this study was to assess whether a district-led multifaceted e-prescribing quality-improvement intervention improved outpatient prescription completeness and selected prescribing indicators in rural Vietnamese primary care. Methods: In this uncontrolled before-and-after study, 1000 health-insurance outpatient e-prescriptions were sampled before the intervention (September-November 2022) and 1000 after it (March-May 2023) from nine public primary healthcare facilities using the Health Information System of Vietnam Posts and Telecommunications (HIS-VNPT; locally recorded as VNPT-HIS). The intervention (December 2022-February 2023) combined prescriber education, drug-information support, audit-feedback, pharmacist-prescriber cross-checking, and administrative reminders. The primary outcome was complete key dosing-instruction documentation. Secondary outcomes were other mandatory completeness fields and selected the World Health Organization/International Network for Rational Use of Drugs prescribing indicators. Findings: Full address documentation remained low (31/1000 [3.1%] vs. 29/1000 [2.9%]; Conclusion: E-prescribing may provide an infrastructure for quality improvement but requires clinical decision support and pharmacy review.
