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

Objective: Compare the differences in health outcomes and patient satisfaction between a neurohospitalist model of care and a community-based neurologists model at a single community-based teaching hospital among in-patients diagnosed with a cerebrovascular accident (CVA). Methods: Data was collected from the Stamford Hospital's electronic medical records system. An assessment of patient health outcomes and satisfaction scores was conducted, comparing both discrete and continuous variables between the two time periods. An omnibus Results: The sample consisted of 341 patients between the two periods, pre-period n = 168 (49.3%) post-period n = 173 (50.7%). Door to lab and door to tPA times decreased significantly between pre- and post-periods ( Conclusions: The introduction of a neurohospitalist service at a community-based teaching hospital improved patient health outcomes on time to intervention, stroke education, discharge medications as well as patient satisfaction. Therefore, it may be beneficial for hospitals to implement a neurohospitalist model of care for their patients presenting with CVA.
