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

backgroundDespite evidence that electronic medical record (EMR) information technology innovations can enhance the quality of trauma center care, few investigations have systematically assessed United States (US) trauma center EMR capacity, particularly for screening of mental health comorbidities. STUDY

designTrauma programs at all US level I and II trauma centers were contacted and asked to complete a survey regarding health information technology (IT) and EMR capacity.

resultsThree hundred ninety-one of 525 (74%) US level I and II trauma centers responded to the survey. More than 90% of trauma centers reported the ability to create custom patient tracking lists in their EMR. Forty-seven percent of centers were interested in automating a blood alcohol content screening process; only 14% reported successfully using their EMR to perform this task. Marked variation was observed across trauma center sites with regard to the types of EMR systems used as well as rates of adoption and turnover of EMR systems.

conclusionsMost US level I and II trauma centers have installed EMR systems; however, marked heterogeneity exists with regard to EMR type, available features, and turnover. A minority of centers have leveraged their EMR for screening of mental health comorbidities among trauma inpatients. Greater attention to effective EMR use is warranted from trauma accreditation organizations.
