An Interactive Information Visualization System for Temporal Queries in a Large-scale COVID-19 EHR Dataset (COVID-SPHERE): development and qualitative evaluation.
Article in AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
COVID-SPHERE is a self-service web application designed to advance clinical research informatics by facilitating secondary use of Electronic Health Records (EHR) for COVID-19 research. The system employs a flexible EHR concept framework that defines hierarchical concepts and ontologies, enabling clinical researchers to build complex temporal queries through an intuitive, single-click interface without requiring database expertise. Our method dynamically generates MongoDB queries in real-time and offers interactive, faceted visualizations to analyze longitudinal patient activities and integrated health records, supporting both individual patient analysis and population-level research. Hosted on a server managing over 5 TB of data encompassing 30 billion health records spanning 15 years from more than 8.8 million patients, this work demonstrated its generalizability by supporting multiple published research studies investigating various COVID related research topics on epidemiology, treatment outcomes, and long-term sequelae since November 2020. By simplifying the cohort discovery process, COVID-SPHERE reduces the informatics barriers between researchers and EHR data, enhancing the efficiency of clinical and translational research while promoting data-driven insights for COVID-19 surveillance and intervention. Its architecture is applicable to other large-scale clinical research data warehouses, offering a model for future public health informatics systems.
