Changing Healthcare and School Needs in the First Year After Traumatic Brain Injury.
Article in The Journal of head trauma rehabilitation. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
objectiveTo examine children's unmet and unrecognized healthcare and school needs following traumatic brain injury (TBI).
settingTwo pediatric trauma centers.
participantsChildren with all severity of TBI aged 4 to 15 years.
designProspective cohort. MAIN MEASURES: Caregivers provided child health and school service use 3 and 12 months postinjury. Unmet and unrecognized needs were categorized compared with norms on standardized physical, cognitive, socioemotional health, or academic competence measures in conjunction with caregiver report of needs and services. Modified Poisson models examined child and family predictors of unmet and unrecognized needs.
resultsOf 322 children, 28% had unmet or unrecognized healthcare or school needs at 3 months, decreasing to 24% at 12 months. Unmet healthcare needs changed from primarily physical (79%) at 3 months to cognitive (47%) and/or socioemotional needs (68%) at 12 months. At 3 months, low social capital, preexisting psychological diagnoses, and 6 to 11 years of age predicted higher healthcare needs and severe TBI predicted higher school needs. Twelve months postinjury, prior inpatient rehabilitation, low income, and preexisting psychological diagnoses were associated with higher healthcare needs; family function was important for school and healthcare needs.
conclusionsTargeted interventions to provide family supports may increase children's access to services.
