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

Incorporation of group quality metrics into an adult primary care compensation track facilitates team-based care and accountability for shared groups of patients. This article describes the reasoning behind group quality metrics and shares lessons learned and improvements in health outcomes as a result. Take-away points are as follows: 1) group quality metrics in a compensation plan help foster team-based care toward quality goals and shared accountability for the health outcomes of attributed patients; 2) definition of the work team is important and should include members who share responsibility for the same groups of patients; 3) information technology infrastructure and dashboards for performance and feedback are critical to the success of a quality incentive program; 4) inclusion of key stakeholders early in the process of designing team-based incentives is important for acceptance; and 5) ongoing education is needed to ensure continued focus on quality goals.
