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

Appointment no-shows have a negative impact on patient health and have caused substantial loss in resources and revenue for health care systems. Intervention strategies to reduce no-show rates can be more effective if targeted to the subpopulations of patients with higher risk of not showing to their appointments. We use electronic health records (EHR) from a large medical center to predict no-show patients based on demographic and health care features. We apply sparse Bayesian modeling approaches based on Lasso and automatic relevance determination to predict and identify the most relevant risk factors of no-show patients at a provider level.
