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

Background: Veterans face specific risk factors for neurocognitive disorders. Providing them with comprehensive care for dementia and related neurocognitive disorders is a challenge as the population ages. There is a need for family-centered interventions, specialized expertise, and collaboration among clinicians and caregivers. The literature suggests that application of a transdisciplinary care model can address these needs and provide effective dementia care. Observations: The Veterans Affairs Greater Los Angeles Healthcare System has employed existing expertise to create a conference-centered transdisciplinary model that responds to the US Department of Veterans Affairs directive for a dementia system of care. This model involves direct participation of behavioral neurology, geriatric psychiatry, geriatrics, neuropsychology, nursing, and social work. In this model, the social worker serves as a dementia care manager and, along with the nurse specialist, assures long-term management through follow-up and monitoring. Transdisciplinary interactions occur in a clinical case conference where each discipline contributes to the veteran's care. The team generates a final report on treating these veterans, the caregiver's needs, referral for psychosocial services, and plans for monitoring and follow-up. Conclusions: This model could be a template of a program for implementing the Dementia System of Care across Veteran Affairs medical centers.
