The Utilization and Impact of Interconnected Electronic Health Record Tools on Hepatitis C Elimination Efforts in a Large Municipal Healthcare System.
Article in Viruses, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
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
New York State and New York City (NYC) developed hepatitis C (HCV) elimination plans to reduce premature deaths and new infections. NYC Health + Hospitals (NYC H + H), the municipal healthcare system for NYC serving over a million individuals annually, designed electronic health record (EHR) tools that collaboratively facilitated screening, linkage, and tracking of patients diagnosed with HCV through to cure. This study reviews the impact of this group of EHR tools by comparing data on HCV testing, linkage, and cure for 12 months before tools were released and a second 12-month period coinciding with the release of tools. Indicators related to HCV screening, diagnoses, treatment initiation, and cure were assessed. All indicators reviewed improved following the implementation of EHR tools. The proportion of individuals screened increased from 34% pre-intervention to 46% during the implementation phase; the number of individuals on direct-acting antivirals increased by 11%; and the number of individuals reaching cure increased by 37%. Efforts to collaboratively develop custom interlinking EHR tools to establish a systematic process proved impactful. Integrating the needs and functions of different care settings and the structure of the local epidemic allowed for the successful development and implementation of impactful resources.
