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

In the United States, electronic health records (EHR) are increasingly being incorporated into healthcare organizations to document patient health and services rendered. EHRs serve as a vast repository of demographic, diagnostic, procedural, therapeutic, and laboratory test data generated during the routine provision of health care. The appeal of using EHR data for epidemiologic research is clear: EHRs generate large datasets on real-world patient populations in an easily retrievable form permitting the cost-efficient execution of epidemiologic studies on a wide array of topics. Constructing epidemiologic cohorts from EHR data involves as a defining feature the development of
