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

The United States faces a growing scarcity of primary care resources within an already overstressed and poorly accessible health care system. Many health care organizations are evaluating novel models of care and adoption of digital technologies to improve primary care access and efficiency of health care delivery. This article describes a virtual primary care (VPC) model that expands access and increases the efficiency of the traditional primary care team by utilizing on-demand and asynchronous digital tools. In the first year of operations, this service line provided >21,000 on-demand telemedicine visits and >4,000 asynchronous eVisits. The VPC service line improved access to primary care services in a financially successful and sustainable model.
