Implementing a Photodocumentation Program.
Article in Journal of imaging informatics in medicine, 2025. 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
The widespread availability of smart devices has facilitated the use of medical photography, yet photodocumentation workflows are seldom implemented in healthcare organizations due to integration challenges with electronic health records (EHR) and standard clinical workflows. This manuscript details the implementation of a comprehensive photodocumentation workflow across all phases of care at a large healthcare organization, emphasizing efficiency and patient safety. From November 2018 to December 2023, healthcare workers at our institution uploaded nearly 32,000 photodocuments spanning 54 medical specialties. The photodocumentation process requires as few as 11 mouse clicks and keystrokes within the EHR and on smart devices. Automation played a crucial role in driving workflow efficiency and patient safety. For example, body part rules were used to automate the application of a sensitive label to photos of the face, chest, external genitalia, and buttocks. This automation was successful, with over 50% of the uploaded photodocuments being labeled as sensitive. Our implementation highlights the potential for standardizing photodocumentation workflows, thereby enhancing clinical documentation, improving patient care, and ensuring the secure handling of sensitive images.
