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

Texas Medicaid improved infant well-child visit rates by participating in a national learning collaborative. The two-year program encouraged creativity and innovation in care for Medicaid recipients through partnerships with managed care organizations (MCOs). The MCO projects discovered valuable practices in member outreach and were disseminated in shared learning experiences. At the completion of the learning collaborative, Texas Medicaid surveyed the MCO participants to assess the impact of their projects on Medicaid beneficiaries in Texas as well as the quality improvement project format. Collectively, the MCOs raised the infant well-child visit rate year-over-year. All of the partner MCOs stated they plan to continue focused work on improving infant well-child visit rates after the learning collaborative.
