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

purposeThis study examines health care coverage and health care among rural, drug-involved female offenders under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) compared with pre-ACA and whether being insured is associated with having a usual source of care.

methodsThis study involved random selection, screening, and face-to-face interviews with drug-using women in three rural Appalachian jails. Analyses focused on participants who had completed a three-month follow-up interview after release from jail (N=371).

resultsAnalyses indicated that women released after ACA implementation were more likely than those released pre-implementation to be insured. A multivariate logistic regression model showed that being insured was significantly related to having a usual health care source during community re-entry.

conclusionsResults demonstrate the benefits of the ACA, signaling important implications for public health in rural communities and the criminal justice system, including targeting underserved groups during incarceration and providing information about and resources for health care enrollment.
