Pathways to interoperable electronic patient records for health and social care: Part 1: for those involved directly in care.
Article in Future healthcare journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Here, we illustrate the clinical and technical implementation of interoperable health data for direct care from the viewpoint of practicing clinicians using examples from primary care. Interoperability allows people involved in the provision and receipt of care to seamlessly exchange and use the coded, free text and documentary data they need to inform care decisions. The pathway toward NHS interoperability to support direct care has been long, but substantial progress has been made. GP computer systems and data-recording standards, national infrastructure and hospital trusts have come a long way on the journey to fully interoperable records. GPs can now receive and utilise laboratory data; via GP2GP, they can transfer full electronic patient records when patients move practice; share health data with other health organisations through GP Connect to support patient care; and provide patients with online access to their full GP record, a cornerstone of person-centred care. Here, we describe the effective technical assets and standards that have been developed to enable electronic patient record data to be shared reliably and securely.
