Quality of life after multiple trauma: the effect of early onset psychotherapy on quality of life in trauma patients.
Trial report in Langenbeck's archives of surgery, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 4 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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 AND
aimsThe aim of this study was to improve health-related quality of life (HRQOL) related to depression, anxiety, pain, physical functioning and social aspects for severely injured trauma survivors by early onset cognitive behavioural therapy applied on the surgical ward. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe study was a randomised, controlled study. Of 298 primary screened patients 171 were eligible and randomised. Ninety-two patients adhered to follow-up investigations at 6 and 12 months. Main outcome measure was a sum score according to O'Brien calculated of five different questionnaires (BDI, SF-36, STAI, SCL 90R, F-SOZU-22).
resultsThe sum score for overall HRQOL did not show significant group differences at follow-up. Effects on HRQOL sub-dimensions within groups have been found. In the dimension of depression therapy group showed significant improvement from the first measurement to discharge from hospital (p < 0.001), 6 MFU (p = 0.004) and to 12 MFU (p = 0.013). Measures of anxiety showed significant improvement for the therapy group at discharge from hospital (p = 0.001). In the control group there was only a significant reduction in depression and anxiety from surgical ward to discharge (p = 0.013/p = 0.031).
conclusionsEarly onset cognitive therapy is not effective in improving overall HRQOL of severely injured patients but shows promising effects on depression and anxiety up to 12 months after trauma.
