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

India has a sizeable adolescent population. Adolescents constitute a vulnerable population for both mental and physical illnesses, and yet their health-care needs and delivery systems are neither well defined nor developed. Many of the mental, reproductive and nutritional health needs of this population are required to be addressed and can be addressed in the primary-care pediatric setting itself if the current system of health-care can be re-organized. This restructuring will be more effective for this population if adolescent friendly approaches, public-private partnership and policy as well as sectoral linkage between the NRHM and other national programs are achieved. The health program for this age group should have promotive and preventive as well as remedial and curative components. Also, improving the availability of trained personnel in these areas of health, culturally sensitive evidence based approaches and capacity building in the primary-care approach is essential to ensure the viability of adolescent health-care in this country.
