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 quality measures (CQMs) are important tools for the assessment and improvement of health care quality. Federal requirements initially set forth in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, and advanced in subsequent stages of the requirements, codified electronic health record (EHR)-based CQM reporting, and have made automated CQM implementation a priority amongst the clinical and informatics communities. Nevertheless, the processes surrounding CQM implementation and validation remain complex, time-consuming, and largely undefined. We collected issue-tracking data during the course of an agile and rigorous collaborative project to build an analytics platform for the Knight Cardiovascular Institute at OHSU, with nine heart failure CQMs defined by the American College of Cardiology (ACC) as an exemplar. Using a mixed methods approach we provide an overview of our CQM implementation and validation process, identify major roadblocks and bottlenecks, and make recommendations for other professionals working in the area of health care quality assessment and improvement.
