Observing Provider Utilization of Electronic Health Records to Improve Clinical Quality Metrics.
Article in Perspectives in health information managemen, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: This study compared changes of healthcare quality in a Michigan Medicaid population before and after physician adoption of electronic health records (EHRs) via the Meaningful Use (MU) program for selected Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS) quality of care measures. Methods: Healthcare measures included well-child visits, cancer screening, and chronic illness quality measures. Utilization data were obtained from Medicaid paid claims and encounter data with providers (N=291) receiving their first MU incentive in 2014 and at least one HEDIS-defined outpatient visit with a Michigan Medicaid enrollee. Paired t-tests with a repeated measures design were utilized to analyze the data. Results: Improvements in quality of infant well-child visits (mean difference = 10.2) and colorectal cancer screening (mean difference = 8.0 percent) were observed. We found no change or slight decreases for the other selected measures. Conclusion: These outcomes inform the performance and ability of EHRs to improve quality of healthcare standards particularly as technology continues to evolve under the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Interoperability and Patient Access final rule.
