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

Terminologies, such as Systematized Nomenclature of Medicine Clinical Terms (SNOMED CT) and Solor, assist with knowledge representation and management, data integration, and triggering clinical decision support (CDS) rules. Semantic relations in these terminologies provide explicit meaning in compositional expressions, which assist with many of the above-listed activities.The aims of this research are to: (1) identify semantic relations that are not fully present in SNOMED CT and Solor and (2) use these identified semantic relations with terms that are currently present in SNOMED CT and Solor to form triples.We identified relations that were not fully present in either SNOMED CT or Solor and were important for VA Knowledge Artifacts (KNARTS). These terms and the relations were formed into triples. The relations, terms, classifications, and sentences were used to implement the relations in the High Definition-Natural Language Processing (HD-NLP) program.There are a total of 38 semantic relations. These had use cases built for each and were implemented in the Solor HD-NLP server for tagging of KNARTS.These new SNOMED CT and Solor semantic relations will give clinicians the ability to add more detail and meaning to their clinical notes. This can improve our ability to trigger CDS rules, leading to improved CDS provided to clinicians during patient care.
