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

Integrated behavioral health and primary care is a set of related approaches to enhance care delivery, safety, and quality through closer collaboration and coordination among clinicians and care organizations in these two fields. Technology (e.g., electronic health records (EHR), telehealth, clinical decision support, and standards-based interoperability) can enable integration and improve delivery of care. Reinforcing these opportunities, virtual care and telehealth have dramatically changed care availability and delivery, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. There are different levels of integration, ranging from minimal to full collaboration. The Partnership for Health IT Patient Safety and the HIMSS Electronic Health Record Association (EHRA) formed a workgroup to examine using information technology to facilitate integration. Taking a three-pronged approach focused on (1) screening for behavioral health issues, (2) clinician documentation, and (3) sharing data among clinicians, patients, and authorized parties, the workgroup developed action-oriented recommendations and strategies for safe use of health IT for stakeholders and policymakers seeking to advance efforts to integrate behavioral health with primary care.
