Development of prediction models of stress and long-term disability among claimants to injury compensation systems: a cohort study.
Article in BMJ open, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
objectivesWe sought to develop prognostic risk scores for compensation-related stress and long-term disability using markers collected within 3 months of a serious injury.
designCohort study. Predictors were collected at baseline and at 3 months postinjury. Outcome data were collected at 72 months postinjury.
settingHospitalised patients with serious injuries recruited from four major trauma hospitals in Australia.
participants332 participants who made claims for compensation for their injuries to a transport accident scheme or a workers' compensation scheme. PRIMARY OUTCOME MEASURES: 12-item WHO Disability Assessment Schedule and 6 items from the Claims Experience Survey.
resultsOur model for long-term disability had four predictors (unemployed at the time of injury, history of a psychiatric disorder at time of injury, post-traumatic stress disorder symptom severity at 3 months and disability at 3 months). This model had good discrimination (R
conclusionsThe ability to identify at an early stage claimants at high risk of compensation-related stress and poor recovery is potentially valuable for claimants and the compensation agencies that serve them. The scoring systems we developed could be incorporated into the claims-handling processes to guide prevention-oriented interventions.
