Timeliness of emergency department diagnoses for syndromic surveillance.
Article in AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
Emergency Department (ED) data are key components of syndromic surveillance systems. While diagnosis data are widely available in electronic form from EDs and have been shown to be an accurate source of clinical data for syndromic surveillance, our previous survey of North Carolina EDs found that the data were not available in a timely manner for early detection. The purpose of this study was to measure the time of availability of participating EDs' diagnosis data in a state-based syndromic surveillance system. We found that a majority of the ED visits transmitted to the state surveillance system for 12/1/05 did not have a diagnosis until more than a week after the visit. Reasons for the lack of timely transmission of diagnoses included coding delays, logistical issues and the lack of IT personnel at smaller hospitals.
