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

backgroundThis study aimed to determine factors associated with patient portal accessing of sexually transmitted infection (STI) test results among adolescents and young adults (AYAs) at a large urban hospital.

methodsWe analyzed 12-month retrospective electronic health record patient portal data among 15,396 patients aged 15 to 25 years who received STI testing. Multinomial logistic regression measured relationships of patient characteristics to accessing STI test results (defined as the time from when STI test results were released to the portal to when AYA patients logged into their portal to view test results). Accessing results was categorized as ( a ) not accessed, ( b ) accessed after 4 days, and ( c ) accessed within 4 days.

resultsMost (63.5% [9775]) of the patients accessed their STI test results within 4 days, whereas 26.1% (4019) did not access results. Being younger than 18 years, being male, being Black or Hispanic/Latino, and living in a low-socioeconomic-status neighborhood were associated with a higher relative risk of not accessing results. DISCUSSION: Findings highlight AYA disparities in accessing STI resultswhile suggesting a promising future for innovative STI interventions that leverage portals for engaging AYA in accessing STI test results.
