Best practices for data visualization: creating and evaluating a report for an evidence-based fall prevention program.
Article in Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association : JAMIA, 2020. 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
This case report applied principles from the data visualization (DV) literature and feedback from nurses to develop an effective report to display adherence with an evidence-based fall prevention program. We tested the usability of the original and revised reports using a Health Information Technology Usability Evaluation Scale (Health-ITUES) customized for this project. Items were rated on a 5-point Likert scale, strongly disagree (1) to strongly agree (5). The literature emphasized that the ideal display maximizes the information communicated, minimizes the cognitive efforts involved with interpretation, and selects the correct type of display (eg, bar versus line graph). Semi-structured nurse interviews emphasized the value of simplified reports and meaningful data. The mean (standard deviation [SD]) Health-ITUES score for the original report was 3.86 (0.19) and increased to 4.29 (0.11) in the revised report (Mann Whitney U Test, z = -12.25, P < 0.001). Lessons learned from this study can inform report development for clinicians in implementation science.
