Graphical summaries for medical patients

Note by ET: In these two articles below, better to change the boxes with normal limits to sparklines with normal limits.

The sparkline-like double-sided patient timeline is medically helpful, data-rich:

Seth M. Powsner and Edward R. Tufte, “Graphical Summary of Patient Status”, The Lancet 344 (August 6, 1994), 386-389.

Seth M. Powsner and Edward R. Tufte, “Summarizing Clinical Psychiatric Data”, Psychiatric Services 48
(November 1997), 1458-1461.
