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

Determining networks of healthcare providers quantitatively can identify impactful care processes that improve health outcomes for a high-risk populations such as elderly people with multiple chronic conditions. By applying social network analysis to health claim data of a large university in the Midwest, we measured healthcare provider networks of patients with diabetes for two consecutive years. Networks were built based on the assumption that having common patients may indicate potential working relationships between providers. Measures of the social network analysis including degree and betweenness centrality were utilized to identify healthcare providers with an important role in the care process. Both degree and betweenness centrality measures identified a supply center and three laboratories as the central providers of the network for both years. This study can positively impact informed decision-making of policymakers and insurance companies to better design their insurance coverage plans based on the collaboration patterns of the healthcare providers.
