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
Background: Electronic health record (EHR) transitions are disruptive events that negatively impact staff. Health professions trainees (HPTs) play a critical role in providing patient care, but the impact of EHR transitions on clinical training and care is unknown. This study sought to examine HPT experiences during a Veterans Health Administration (VHA) EHR transition. Methods: The evaluation team at the Captain James A. Lovell Federal Health Care Center, which was transitioning to the new Cerner/Oracle Health EHR, conducted a mixed-methods analysis. Qualitative data included semistructured interviews with 19 HPTs, supervisors, and site leaders about their experiences. Quantitative data included 103 responses to 3 surveys. Results: The evaluation team identified 6 findings among the HPT responses: (1) transition management was viewed as poor; (2) EHR training was not relevant; (3) they were hopeful about the new EHR; (4) in-house support was considered essential; (5) learning Cerner/Oracle Health was rapid; and (6) the transition impacted clinical training, but not career plans. Conclusions: HPTs detailed transition experiences that were meaningfully better than those described by HPTs at earlier transition sites. The VHA should understand and mitigate the negative impact of transitions to ensure beneficial clinical training experiences and the delivery of quality patient care.
