The patient-centered dental home: A standardized definition for quality assessment, improvement, and integration.
Article in Health services research, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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.
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
objectiveTo develop the first standardized definition of the patient-centered dental home (PCDH). DATA SOURCES/STUDY
settingPrimary data from a 55-member national expert panel and public comments. STUDY
designWe used a modified Delphi process with three rounds of surveys to collect panelists' ratings of PCDH characteristics and open-ended comments. The process was supplemented with a 1-month public comment period. DATA COLLECTION/EXTRACTION
methodsWe calculated median ratings, analyzed consensus using the interpercentile range adjusted for symmetry, and qualitatively evaluated comments. PRINCIPAL
findingsForty-nine experts (89%) completed three rounds and identified eight essential PCDH characteristics, resulting in the following definition: "The patient-centered dental home is a model of care that is accessible, comprehensive, continuous, coordinated, patient- and family-centered, and focused on quality and safety as an integrated part of a health home for people throughout the life span."
conclusionsThis PCDH definition provides the foundation for developing measures for research, care improvement, and accreditation and is aligned with the patient-centered medical home. Consensus among a broad national expert panel-including provider, payer, and accreditation stakeholder organizations and experts in medicine, dentistry, and quality measurement-supports the definition's usability and its potential to facilitate medical-dental primary care integration.
