Increasing the feasibility, impact, and equity of the Medicare Annual Wellness Visit (AWV) with a practice tailored AWV intervention: A stepped wedge clinical trial protocol.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05910736 (Increasing the Feasibility, Impact, and Equity of the Medicare Annual Wellness Visit), which is not on this map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.

Abstract
backgroundOlder adults vastly underutilize evidence-based preventive health services and screenings that reduce illness, morbidity and mortality. The free-to-patient Medicare Annual Wellness Visit (AWV) is an opportunity to enhance preventive healthcare use, but also is underused.
objectivesTo evaluate the effect of a practice-tailored intervention on the sustained use of Medicare AWVs and on guideline-recommended preventive services and racial/ethnic disparities in 3 types of practice settings.
methodsThis is a stepped wedge cluster randomized controlled trial. The intervention will be implemented at the practice level in 24 primary care practices across the country (8 community-based, 8 academic, and 8 serving medically underserved populations). Electronic health record data will be used to assess changes in AWV and preventive service delivery rates and racial, ethnic, and gender disparities. Semi-structured interviews will be conducted with clinicians/staff and patients, and clinicians will be surveyed to assess the process and acceptability of the intervention. The protocol is registered on clinicaltrials.gov (NCT05910736).
resultsAnalyses will determine the effect of the intervention on AWV visit and preventive health services use at 12- and 24-months post-intervention implementation. Additional analyses will evaluate the effect of the intervention on reducing racial/ethnic disparities.
conclusionsA practice-tailored intervention has the potential to increase use of AWVs and preventive health services, and reduce racial/ethnic disparities, in diverse practice settings.
