The case for information fiduciaries: The implementation of a data ethics checklist at Seattle Children's Hospital.
Article in Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association : JAMIA, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
There is little debate about the importance of ethics in health care, and clearly defined rules, regulations, and oaths help ensure patients' trust in the care they receive. However, standards are not as well established for the data professions within health care, even though the responsibility to treat patients in an ethical way extends to the data collected about them. Increasingly, data scientists, analysts, and engineers are becoming fiduciarily responsible for patient safety, treatment, and outcomes, and will require training and tools to meet this responsibility. We developed a data ethics checklist that enables users to consider the possible ethical issues that arise from the development and use of data products. The combination of ethics training for data professionals, a data ethics checklist as part of project management, and a data ethics committee holds potential for providing a framework to initiate dialogues about data ethics and can serve as an ethical touchstone for rapid use within typical analytic workflows, and we recommend the use of this or equivalent tools in deploying new data products in hospitals.
