Enhancing Access to Psychiatric Care for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder in Veterans with Mild Traumatic Brain Injury through Integrated Services.
Article in The Psychiatric quarterly, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
(i) To describe an integrated model of psychiatric care for the treatment of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in veterans with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). (ii) To evaluate access to and engagement in psychiatric care among veterans with comorbid PTSD and mTBI after implementation of an Integrated Care (IC) model compared to the previous Usual Care (UC). 100 randomly selected charts, 50 from each of UC and IC were reviewed in this non-concurrent case- control study. Polytrauma Network Site (PNS), an outpatient rehabilitation clinic, for veterans who suffered from brain and other traumatic injuries at an urban VA Polytrauma Rehabilitation Center. Veterans receiving treatment for mTBI symptoms by the rehabilitation team were referred for medication management for PTSD to UC and IC. Co-located access to psychiatric care for medication management as part of the interdisciplinary team with the goal of expediting rehabilitation and functional recovery. Number of consults for psychiatric care for medication management scheduled and completed within 30 days, and number of veterans offered, initiating, and completing evidence-based psychotherapies for PTSD in UC compared to IC. After implementation of IC there were significant improvements in timely completion of consults and patient engagement with a psychiatrist. There also were improvements in number of referrals, initiation, and completion of evidence-based psychotherapies for the treatment of PTSD. IC within the PNS shows promise as an effective care model for increasing access and engagement in care for veterans with comorbid PTSD/mTBI. Future research is needed to examine the utility of this model in other sites.
