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

Laboratory data collected in the electronic health record as part of routine care can be used in secondary research. For example, the US Department of Veterans Affairs maintains a data warehouse covering over 20 million individuals and 6.6 billion lab tests. However, data aggregation in such a data warehouse can be difficult. In order to retrieve all or nearly all of one type of lab result with a high degree of precision, we perform clinical concept adjudication, which is the process of an expert determining which database records correspond to a target clinical concept. In this work, we develop an interactive machine learning tool to "extend the reach" of expert laboratory test adjudicators. Our tool provides access to automatic laboratory classification in a user-facing front end that covers all steps in an adjudication workflow, in order to lower barriers to collaboration, increase transparency of adjudication, and to promote efficiencies and data reuse.
