Visual Analytics Dashboard Promises to Improve Hypertension Guideline Implementation.
Article in American journal of hypertension, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundPrimary care management of hypertension under new guidelines incorporates assessment of cardiovascular disease risk and commonly requires review of electronic health record (EHR) data. Visual analytics can streamline the review of complex data and may lessen the burden clinicians face using the EHR. This study sought to assess the utility of a visual analytics dashboard in addition to EHR in managing hypertension in a primary care setting.
methodsPrimary care physicians within an urban, academic internal medicine clinic were tasked with performing 2 simulated patient encounters for hypertension management: the first using standard EHR, and the second using EHR paired with a visual dashboard. The dashboard included graphical blood pressure trends with guideline-directed targets, calculated atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk score, and relevant medications. Guideline-appropriate antihypertensive prescribing, correct target blood pressure goal, and total encounter time were assessed.
resultsWe evaluated 70 case simulations. Use of the dashboard with the EHR compared with use of the EHR alone was associated with greater adherence to prescribing guidelines (95% vs. 62%, P < 0.001) and more correct identification of blood pressure target (95% vs. 57%, P < 0.01). Total encounter time fell an average of 121 seconds (95% confidence interval 69-157 seconds, P < 0.001) in encounters that used the dashboard combined with the EHR.
conclusionsThe integration of a hypertension-specific visual analytics dashboard with EHR demonstrates the potential to reduce time and improve hypertension guideline implementation. Further widespread testing in clinical practice is warranted.
