Adopting common data elements (CDEs) for the National Trauma Research Repository (NTRR): the results of an outcome, outcome measures, and rehabilitation Delphi Survey.

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: The National Trauma Research Repository (NTRR) serves as the central warehouse for trauma clinical research data that result from military and civilian trauma research. An effort to enhance the NTRR was undertaken through the identification and integration of common data elements (CDEs). CDEs will improve usability for primary investigators and allow for enhanced secondary analysis and combing of NTRR archived studies. A consensus-driven approach was used to review established data elements and recommend trauma basic CDEs for the outcomes and rehabilitation environments of care for inclusion in the NTRR data dictionary. Methods: A multidisciplinary workgroup located and reviewed data dictionaries, codebooks, data collection forms, and published articles for outcome measurement instruments and individual outcome and rehabilitation data elements. Three rounds of a Delphi Survey were completed, and monthly meetings with the workgroup were conducted. Consensus during the Delphi Survey was identified with an 80% agreement threshold. Results: Fifteen sources were reviewed for outcome measurement instruments, 39 measurement instruments were presented for consideration in the Delphi Survey, and 12 instruments (28%) reached consensus for inclusion in the NTRR data dictionary. Seventeen sources were reviewed for individual outcome data elements, 55 data elements were included in the Delphi Survey, and 45 data elements reached consensus for inclusion. Eleven sources were reviewed for rehabilitation data elements. Of the 41 rehabilitation data elements identified and included in the Delphi, 17 data elements reached consensus for inclusion. Discussion: This workgroup selected outcome measurement instruments, outcome CDEs, and rehabilitation CDEs for inclusion in the NTRR data dictionary as basic CDEs. Next steps include disseminating these elements, integrating their use in trauma studies, and tracking the use and usability of these instruments and CDEs. Level of evidence: VII.
