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

Clinical research designed to enhance the quality of health care has always received a great deal of national attention. Outcomes studies, clinical trials, and evidence-based research are key components of clinical research that have advanced the field of hand surgery. The purpose of the Weiland Award is to encourage innovations and progress in clinical research in hand surgery for the betterment of patients and to promote hand surgery's visibility in American medicine. This article will highlight my efforts in clinical research through 3 specific research themes: (1) outcomes research, (2) economic analysis, and (3) evidence-based research and quality assessment in health care.
