Formalizing the curbside: digitally enhancing access to specialty care.
Article in Proceedings (Baylor University. Medical Center), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Asynchronous medical care has increased in utilization, patient interest, and industry demand. While E-consults have been discussed extensively in the literature, there are rare examples of a multispecialty implementation within a large health system. Here, we describe our experience in implementing an internal E-consult program for asynchronous, nonurgent communication between ambulatory specialists and primary care providers in our large multispecialty regional health system. To ensure adoption of the program, patient, specialist, and primary care physician concerns were systematically addressed. The program commenced in February 2022 with three high referral rate specialties: cardiology, orthopedics, and dermatology. In the 12 months after implementation, 2243 total E-consults were ordered among 505 ordering providers. Dermatology received the most consultations, and we have expanded to 19 specialties and subspecialties available in the program in the first year. Our E-consult implementation experienced substantial growth in a short time period, demonstrating the viability of E-consult utilization for increasing asynchronous access to ambulatory specialists' expertise in a large healthcare system.
