Enhancing the Functionalities of Personal Health Record Systems: Empirical Study Based on the HL7 Personal Health Record System Functional Model Release 1.
Article in JMIR medical informatics, 2024. 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
Background: The increasing demand for personal health record (PHR) systems is driven by individuals' desire to actively manage their health care. However, the limited functionality of current PHR systems has affected users' willingness to adopt them, leading to lower-than-expected usage rates. The HL7 (Health Level Seven) PHR System Functional Model (PHR-S FM) was proposed to address this issue, outlining all possible functionalities in PHR systems. Although the PHR-S FM provides a comprehensive theoretical framework, its practical effectiveness and applicability have not been fully explored. Objective: This study aimed to design and develop a tethered PHR prototype in accordance with the guidelines of the PHR-S FM. It sought to explore the feasibility of applying the PHR-S FM in PHR systems by comparing the prototype with the results of previous research. Methods: The PHR-S FM profile was defined to meet broad clinical data management requirements based on previous research. We designed and developed a PHR prototype as a web application using the Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources R4 (FHIR) and Logical Observation Identifiers Names and Codes (LOINC) coding system for interoperability and data consistency. We validated the prototype using the Synthea dataset, which provided realistic synthetic medical records. In addition, we compared the results produced by the prototype with those of previous studies to evaluate the feasibility and implementation of the PHR-S FM framework. Results: The PHR prototype was developed based on the PHR-S FM profile. We verified its functionality by demonstrating its ability to synchronize data with the FHIR server, effectively managing and displaying various health data types. Validation using the Synthea dataset confirmed the prototype's accuracy, achieving 100% coverage across 1157 data items. A comparison with the findings of previous studies indicated the feasibility of implementing the PHR-S FM and highlighted areas for future research and improvements. Conclusions: The results of this study offer valuable insights into the potential for practical application and broad adoption of the PHR-S FM in real-world health care settings.
