Longitudinal trajectories of post-concussive and depressive symptoms in adolescents with prolonged recovery from concussion.
Trial report in Brain injury, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
PRIMARY
objectiveTo investigate the symptom trajectories of depressive and post-concussive symptoms (PCS) in slow-to-recover adolescents to understand how the two sets of symptoms are related. RESEARCH
designWe used data from a randomized clinical trial of a collaborative care intervention for post-concussive symptoms to better understand how these two sets of symptoms change in parallel over 6 months. METHODS AND PROCEDURE: PCS and depressive symptom scores for 49 adolescents (ages 11-17) were measured at enrolment and after 1, 3, and 6 months. Latent growth curve modelling for parallel processes was used to simultaneously examine change in PCS and depressive symptoms over time and to evaluate the influence of one change process on the other. MAIN OUTCOMES AND
resultsOn average, patients enrolled 66 days following injury (Interquartile range (IQR) 43.5, 88.5). PCS and depressive symptoms were significantly associated at enrolment and over time, and both decreased over the course of 6 months. Higher PCS at enrolment predicted a greater decrease in depressive symptoms over time.
conclusionsOur results suggest that clinicians should screen for and treat depressive symptoms in patients with high post-concussive symptoms one month following injury.
