Assessing the value of health information exchange organizations to hospital interoperability.

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
Introduction: Various federal efforts have supported the development of local, regional, and state health information exchange organizations (HIOs), a type of network that promotes secure electronic exchange of patient health information among hospitals, healthcare providers, community-based organizations, and public health authorities. With the emergence of complementary and alternative modes to facilitate exchange, we sought to assess the value of HIOs to hospital interoperability. Methods: We leveraged nationally representative survey data from a unique linked dataset of Results: We found that hospital participation in an HIO was significantly associated with greater engagement in clinical information exchange, public health reporting, and health-related social needs information exchange. However, among hospitals participating in an HIO, we did not find strong evidence of a relationship between specific HIO capabilities or services and hospital engagement in exchange. Conclusion: Our findings indicate HIOs offer a useful avenue for exchange but are only one path through which exchange takes place as there are various alternatives available to support interoperability activities.
