Electronic Health Record Documentation Times among Emergency Medicine Trainees.
Trial report in Perspectives in health information managemen, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Physicians spend a large portion of their time documenting patient encounters using electronic health records (EHRs). Meaningful Use guidelines have made EHR systems widespread, but they have not been shown to save time. This study compared the time required to complete an emergency department note in two different EHR systems for three separate video-recorded standardized simulated patient encounters. The total time needed to complete documentation, including the time to write and order the initial history, physical exam, and diagnostic studies, and the time to provide medical decision making and disposition, were recorded and compared by trainee across training levels. The only significant difference in documentation time was by classification, with second- and third-year trainees being significantly faster in documenting on the Cerner system than fourth-year medical student and first-year trainees (
