Prevalence, Patterns, and Predictors of Multimorbidity in Adults With Acquired Brain Injury at Admission to Staged Community-Based Rehabilitation.
Article in Archives of rehabilitation research and clinical translation, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
objectivesTo describe the prevalence, patterns, and predictors of multimorbidity in adults with an acquired brain injury (ABI) on presentation to a community-based neurorehabilitation service.
designRetrospective cohort study using routinely collected admissions and clinical data.
settingCommunity-based neurorehabilitation.
participantsIndividuals (N=263) with non-traumatic brain injury (NTBI; n=187 [71.1%]) versus traumatic brain injury (TBI; n=76 [28.9%]).
interventionsNot applicable.
main outcome measuresComorbidity was defined as the co-occurrence of at least one chronic condition in conjunction with a primary diagnosis of ABI. Multimorbidity was defined as the co-occurrence of 2 or more chronic conditions across 2 or more body systems, in conjunction with a primary diagnosis of ABI.
resultsComorbidity was present in 72.2% of participants overall, whereas multimorbidity was present in 35.4% of the cohort. The prevalence of comorbidity (76% vs 63%;
conclusionsMost participants experienced multimorbidity. Effective management of multimorbidity should be included as part of individual rehabilitation for ABI and planning of resource allocation and service delivery. The results of this study can help guide the provision of treatment and services for individuals with ABI in community-based rehabilitation. Our study highlights access to mental health, cardiovascular, endocrine, and neurology services as essential components of rehabilitation for ABI.
