Relation of length of stay and other hospital variables to posttraumatic stress disorder and depression after orthopedic trauma.
Article in Proceedings (Baylor University. Medical Center), 2020. 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
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and depression are common following orthopedic trauma. This study examined the relationship between injury- and hospital-related variables and PTSD and depression at baseline and 12 months after orthopedic trauma. This longitudinal, prospective cohort study examined adult orthopedic trauma patients admitted ≥24 hours to a level I trauma center. Non-English/Spanish-speaking and cognitively impaired patients were excluded. The Primary Care PTSD screen and PTSD Checklist-Civilian version assessed PTSD, and the Patient Health Questionnaire 8-Item assessed depression. Demographic and hospital-related variables were examined (e.g., hospital length of stay, Injury Severity Score, Glasgow Coma Scale). For 160 participants, PTSD prevalence was 23% at baseline and 21% at 12 months. Depression prevalence was 28% at baseline and 29% at 12 months. Ventilation (
