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

We are presently seeing exponential advances in medical knowledge and development of therapeutic and diagnostic tools. We have also begun to experience an historic restructuring of our health care system. But health care costs continue to rise, disparities persist, and the chaotic, disjointed, and often thoughtless discourse in Washington threatens to roll back the prior advances. Improvement in patient care will be severely stymied if the threats to academic medical centers are not countered. This paper will explore our present state through the lens of cardiovascular care. It will 1) examine clinical trends; 2) dissect the value and challenges to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act; 3) highlight limitations and alternatives to relying on the federal government; and 4) present the Academic Medical System construct, as a structure designed to retain and advance the academic mission.
