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

objectivesNurse concerns documented in nursing notes are important predictors of patient risk of deterioration. Using a standard nursing terminology and inputs from subject-matter experts (SMEs), we aimed to identify and define nurse concern concepts and terms about patient deterioration, which can be used to support subsequent automated tasks, such as natural language processing and risk predication.

methodsGroup consensus meetings with nurse SMEs were held to identify nursing concerns by grading Clinical Care Classification (CCC) system concepts based on clinical knowledge. Next, a fundamental lexicon was built placing selected CCC concepts into a framework of entities and seed terms to extend CCC granularity.

resultsA total of 29 CCC concepts were selected as reflecting nurse concerns. From these, 111 entities and 586 seed terms were generated into a fundamental lexicon. Nursing concern concepts differed across settings (intensive care units versus non-intensive care units) and unit types (medicine versus surgery units).

conclusionsThe CCC concepts were useful for representing nursing concern as they encompass a nursing-centric conceptual framework and are practical in lexicon construction. It enabled the codification of nursing concerns for deteriorating patients at a standardized conceptual level. The boundary of selected CCC concepts and lexicons were determined by the SMEs. The fundamental lexicon offers more granular terms that can be identified and processed in an automated fashion.
