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

This study aimed to examine the association between public satisfaction with the overall medical service and individuals' self-rated health among 18,852 Chinese adults aged 16-60 years by using data from the 2018 China Family Panel Studies. We further test whether such an association is mediated by perceived attitudes toward the medical service. The logistic regression model is used to explore the association between public satisfaction with the overall medical service and individuals' self-rated health (SRH) outcomes. Mediation analysis was conducted by using the Karlson-Holm-Breen (KHB) method. We found that public satisfaction with the overall medical service was associated with good SRH. Additional results indicated that the association between public satisfaction with the overall medical service and SRH was significantly mediated by perceived attitudes toward the medical service. The degree of mediation is much larger for individuals' satisfaction with the level of medical expertise than for trusting in doctors, attitudes toward medical service problems, and the attitude toward the level of the hospital. Targeted medical policy interventions are designed to promote individuals' perceived attitudes toward the medical service, which might help to improve individuals' health benefits.
