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

Systems that attempt to integrate and analyze data from multiple data sources are greatly aided by the addition of specific semantic and metadata "context" that explicitly describes what a data value means. In this paper, we describe a systematic approach to constructing models of data and their context. Our approach provides a generic "template" for constructing such models. For each data source, a developer creates a customized model by filling in the tem-plate with predefined attributes and value. This approach facilitates model construction and provides consistent syntax and semantics among models created with the template. Systems that can process the template structure and attribute values can reason about any model so described. We used the template to create a detailed knowledge base for syndromic surveillance data integration and analysis. The knowledge base provided support for data integration, translation, and analysis methods.
