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

Querying electronic health records databases to accurately identify specific cohorts of patients has countless observational and interventional research applications. Computable phenotypes are computationally executable, explicit sets of selection criteria composed of data elements, logical expressions, and a combination of natural language processing and machine learning techniques enabling expedited patient cohort identification. Phenotyping encompasses a range of implementations, each with advantages and use cases. In this paper, the dermatologic computable phenotype literature is reviewed. We identify and evaluate approaches and community supports for computable phenotyping that have been used both generally and within dermatology and, as a case study, focus on studied phenotypes for atopic dermatitis.
