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

VA-ECHO (Veterans Affairs -Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes) provides live, synchronous, continuing education accredited, case-based learning. Sessions deliver up-to-date, evidence-based, practice-relevant, Veteran-focused learning to healthcare team members. The primary goal of VA-ECHO is to increase Veterans' access to high quality care by improving knowledge and skills among VA care providers. Utilizing the RE-AIM framework, descriptive statistics for 23 VA-ECHO programs regarding program effectiveness, adoption, implementation, and maintenance during a five-year period (2018-2022) are reported. VA-ECHO offered 1,462 sessions and 157,238 contact hours, engaging 17,642 participants from 837 VA-based sites (20% rural-based sites). Effectiveness includes information on number and diversity of programs, as well as reported impact on participants' practice. Adoption includes descriptive statistics, including comparison of growth and change compared to prior years. Implementation describes change in the program over time, including the number of specialties offered, and types of continuing education offered. Maintenance includes a narrative regarding sustainability. The discussion focuses on implementation and maintenance strategies the program has used to address participant and VA needs within the RE-AIM framework, including adjustments to the program, iterative qualitative improvement, sustainment strategies, and opportunities for future evaluation.
