Capturing Concerns about Patient Deterioration in Narrative Documentation in Home Healthcare.
Article in AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Home healthcare (HHC) agencies provide care to more than 3.4 million adults per year. There is value in studying HHC narrative notes to identify patients at risk for deterioration. This study aimed to build machine learning algorithms to identify "concerning" narrative notes of HHC patients and identify emerging themes. Six algorithms were applied to narrative notes (n = 4,000) from a HHC agency to classify notes as either "concerning" or "not concerning." Topic modeling using Latent Dirichlet Allocation bag of words was conducted to identify emerging themes from the concerning notes. Gradient Boosted Trees demonstrated the best performance with a F-score = 0.74 and AUC = 0.96. Emerging themes were related to patient-clinician communication, HHC services provided, gait challenges, mobility concerns, wounds, and caregivers. Most themes have been cited by previous literature as increasing risk for adverse events. In the future, such algorithms can support early identification of patients at risk for deterioration.
