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

PURPOSE AND

objectivesEffective community-based programs to manage arthritis exist, but many adults with arthritis are unaware that these programs are available in their communities. An electronic health record (EHR) referral intervention was designed to strengthen health care and community-based partnerships and increase participation in these arthritis programs. The intervention was developed in response to a national effort that aimed to enhance the health, wellness, and quality of life for people with arthritis by increasing the awareness and availability of, and participation in arthritis-appropriate evidence-based interventions. INTERVENTION APPROACH: The National Recreation and Park Association recruited 4 park and recreation agencies and their health care partners to implement an EHR-based retrospective and point-of-care referral intervention. Eligible for referral were adults aged 45 or older with an arthritis condition who were seen by a physician within the past 18 months, and were living within the park and recreation service area. After health care organizations identified eligible adults, they either mailed communication packages describing the availability and benefits of the intervention and conducted phone calls to encourage arthritis-appropriate intervention participation or counseled and referred patients during an office visit. EVALUATION

methodsThe pilot was assessed by using semi-structured interviews with key intervention staff members and the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research.

resultsOur approach resulted in referrals for 3,660 people, 1,063 (29%) of whom participated in an intervention. Analysis of key informant interviews also highlighted the specific contextual factors, facilitators, and barriers that influenced the adaptation and overall implementation of the referral intervention. IMPLICATIONS FOR PUBLIC HEALTH: Our pilot demonstrates that successful coordination between health care organizations and community-based organizations can promote awareness of and participation in community-based programs. An understanding of the contextual factors and lessons learned can be used to inform processes that can lead to more effective and sustainable health care and community-based partnerships.
