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

Care managers play a key role in coordinating care, especially for patients with chronic conditions. They use multiple health information technology application in order to access, process and communicate patient-related information. Using the work system model and its extension, the SEIPS model (Carayon et al., 2006a; Smith and Carayon-Sainfort, 1989), we describe obstacles experienced by care manager in managing patient-related information. A web-based questionnaire was used to collect data from 80 care managers (61% response rate) located in clinics, hospitals and a call center. Care managers were more likely to consider 'inefficiencies in access to patient-related information' and 'having to use multiple information systems' as major obstacles than 'lack of computer training and support' and 'inefficient use of case management software.' Care managers who reported inefficient use of software as an obstacle were more likely to report high workload. Future research should explore strategies used by care managers' to address obstacles, and efforts should be targeted at improving the health information technologies used by care managers.
