Algorithm to detect pediatric provider attention to high BMI and associated medical risk.
Article in Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association : JAMIA, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
We developed and validated an algorithm that uses combinations of extractable electronic-health-record (EHR) indicators (diagnosis codes, orders for laboratories, medications, and referrals) that denote widely-recommended clinician practice behaviors: attention to overweight/obesity/body mass index alone (BMI Alone), with attention to hypertension/other comorbidities (BMI/Medical Risk), or neither (No Attention). Data inputs used for each EHR indicator were refined through iterative chart review to identify and resolve modifiable coding errors. Validation was performed through manual review of randomly selected visit encounters (n = 308) coded by the refined algorithm. Of 104 encounters coded as No Attention, 89.4% lacked any evidence (specificity) of attention to BMI/Medical Risk. Corresponding evidence (sensitivity) of attention to BMI Alone was identified in 96.0% (of 101 encounters coded as BMI Alone) and BMI/Medical Risk in 96.1% (of 103 encounters coded as BMI/Medical Risk). Our EHR data algorithm can validly determine provider attention to BMI alone, with Medical Risk, or neither.
