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

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) institutionalized Medicaid as a significant and permanent structure in the U.S. health care system. About half of the 32 million Americans expected to gain health insurance coverage under the ACA will be covered under Medicaid. While it is clear general internists will be significantly impacted by Medicaid-related health care reform provisions, its ultimate effect is unclear since these new opportunities also come with some new potential burdens. There are four main areas of impact for general internists to consider: (1) coverage expansions and reimbursement; (2) multiple payers and fragmented coverage; (3) primary care workforce and infrastructure capacity; and (4) delivery model changes.
