The Influence of School-Based Health Center Access on High School Graduation: Evidence From Colorado.
Article in The Journal of adolescent health : official publication of the Society for Adolescent Medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
purposeTo examine the association between the introduction of a school-based health center (SBHC) and high school graduation rates.
methodsWe use school-level longitudinal data from Colorado that combines data on the opening of SBHCs in high schools with 4-year high school graduation rates overall and by gender between 2000 and 2018. The analytic sample consists of high schools without an SBHC in 2000 (n = 132). We compare high schools that opened SBHCs over the period to those that did not and run school-level panel fixed effects models to assess the relationship between opening an SBHC and change in high school graduation rates.
resultsSchools that subsequently opened SBHCs had larger minority populations and lower average graduation rates in 2000. Opening an SBHC was associated with a 4.1 percentage point increase in the overall graduation rate (p = .077). The gender-stratified analyses indicate young men's graduation rates were most sensitive to the presence of an SBHC, increasing 4.8 percentage points (p = .051), compared to young women's graduation rates increasing 3.0 percentage points (p = .163).
conclusionsOur findings suggest that the benefits of SBHC access may extend beyond health-specific outcomes to graduation rates.
