Data quality and auditing within the Netherlands Heart Registration: using the PCI registry as an example.
Article in Netherlands heart journal : monthly journal of the Netherlands Society of Cardiology and the Netherlands Heart Foundation, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 28 papers.
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
aimThe aim of this article is to present the method and results of the data quality control system and audit within the Netherlands Heart Registration (NHR) using data of patients treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the Netherlands as an example.
methodsThe NHR is a Dutch nationwide registry of all cardiac interventions, comprising data from all 71 hospitals, of which 30 are cardiac intervention or heart centres. Each year, within the NHR, data validation and verification is performed by standard quality controls and monitoring visits (audits). For the audit in 2019, a sample of 50-100 medical records of patients treated with PCI in 2016 and 2017 were reviewed in each hospital by an independent auditor. The data received by the NHR were compared with the information in the hospitals' medical records. In total 12 patient characteristics, 5 intervention variables and 3 outcome variables were screened. The value of a variable was considered discrepant if more than 10% of the medical records reviewed regarding this variable were not consistent with the reported data received by the NHR.
resultsFor all variables together, the consistency was high, 97.6%. All variables, except multivessel disease (9.3% discrepancy in the 2622 medical records reviewed), had an accuracy above 95%.
conclusionThe results of the audit of the PCI medical records show that the overall quality of the data is high. For variables such as multivessel disease it is important to improve knowledge of the definitions and to train all those involved in the registration process.
