Rationing: a transatlantic perspective.
Article in The British journal of general practice : the journal of the Royal College of General Practitioners, 1996. 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
Despite the differing mechanisms of health care delivery and financing in the United Kingdom and the United States many of the issues faced by the two countries are similar, most notably the increasing financial pressures. In both countries there have been recent changes in the allocation of resources and the mechanisms of decision making. Different criteria for determining resource allocation have been tried in the two health care systems. These developments change long traditions of rationing decisions at the individual patient level in the US, and of centralised government decision making in the UK.
