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

Background and Aim: After the COVID-19 pandemic, Vietnamese hospitals experienced reduced patient numbers, staffing shortages, and decreased morale, adversely affecting service quality and patient satisfaction. This study aimed to assess patients' perceptions of healthcare service quality at a primary facility in the post-pandemic context and compare these findings with pre-pandemic benchmarks. Methods: A cross-sectional study conducted at a public district hospital surveyed outpatient clients between November 1, 2022 and June 30, 2023 using the SERVPERF tool for quality assessment. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and bivariate analysis. Results: A total of 190 outpatients participated (58.9%, Conclusion: This study provides a post-pandemic assessment of PHSQ, showing high SERVPERF scores but a relatively low proportion of "good" PHSQ when compared to pre-pandemic benchmarks.
