Assessing the Effect of School-Based Health Centers on Achievement of National Performance Measures.
Article in The Journal of school health, 2021. 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
backgroundWe assess the impact of School-Based Health Centers (SBHCs) on National Performance Measures (NPMs) related to health care access and utilization among Medicaid-insured youth in Delaware.
methodsOur retrospective analysis of Delaware's SBHC program data linked with Medicaid claims during 2014-2016 for 13 to 18-year-olds assessed achievement of NPMs and use of mental health services using propensity scores. We estimated crude and adjusted prevalence ratios (APR) for SBHC-enrolled compared with non-enrolled youth.
resultsStudents enrolled in SBHCs had more health care visits (M = 8.7; 95% CI: 7.9-9.5) compared with non-SBHC-enrolled youth (M = 4.5; 95% CI: 4.3-4.7). Compared with non-SBHC, those enrolled in SBHCs were more likely to receive: well-child visits (APR = 1.2; 95% CI: 1.1-1.3); annual risk assessment (APR = 11.0; 95% CI: 6.9-17.5); BMI screening (APR = 5.6; 95% CI: 3.3-9.4); nutrition counseling (APR = 4.1; 95% CI: 2.8-6.0); physical activity counseling (APR = 6.3; 95% CI: 4.2-9.4); STIs and chlamydia screening (APR = 1.9; 95% CI: 1.3-2.8); mental health visits (APR = 2.6; 95% CI: 2.2-3.1).
conclusionsWe found that among Medicaid-insured youth, those enrolled in SBHCs vs not enrolled in SBHCs had greater health care utilization as evident from NPMs and mental health services.
