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

While computerized provider order entry (CPOE) has become standard for medication, laboratory, referral, and imaging ordering, use in surgical case requests has not been well-described. At a large county hospital, many surgical clinics used a variety of workflows for case requests, leading to data duplication and data storage outside of the electronic health record (EHR).We hypothesized that a provider-entered order-based case request (OBCR) tool would improve data entry efficiency and provide a more comprehensive EHR audit trail.We implemented an OBCR tool across surgical clinics at a large safety-net hospital system. The existing workflow, whereby clinic managers created operative cases within the EHR after provider communication, remained available. We analyzed all cases requested via old or new workflows for 6 months after the go-live of the tool.From 2022 to 2023, managers created 7,226 operative case requests across 19 surgical clinics, 158 faculty surgeons, and 1,737 procedure combinations. Most cases (4,585, 63%) were created via OBCR. Clinic OBCR use ranged from 2 to 97% of created cases. With OBCR, case information was entered earlier, resulting in significantly increased time from case creation to scheduling, 12.0 versus 0.7 days, respectively (
