1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundDiabetes is a leading cause of death in the United States, and comorbid mental illness is associated with worse diabetes outcomes. Those with criminal justice involvement (CJI) have high rates of mental illness and diabetes prevalence. However, little is known about the relationship between CJI and mental illness among those with diabetes.

methodsUsing a nationally representative sample of U.S. adults with diabetes from the National Survey of Drug Use and Health (2015-2018), we investigated the relationship between CJI and mental health outcomes (depression, serious psychologic distress, serious mental illness, moderate mental illness, any mental illness, functional status). Multiple linear and logistic regression models were used to assess the relationship between CJI and each mental health outcome adjusting for multiple socio-demographic and comorbidity variables.

resultsOf 11,594 respondents, representing 25,834,422 adults with diabetes, 17.1% reported prior CJI. In fully adjusted models, CJI was independently associated with all mental health outcomes: depression (aOR 1.80, 95% CI: 1.41, 2.30), serious psychologic distress (aOR 1.53, 95% CI: 1.23, 1.90), serious mental illness (aOR 2.00, 95% CI: 1.58, 2.52), moderate mental illness (aOR 1.72, 95% CI 1.30, 2.26), any mental illness (aOR 1.92, 95% CI: 1.56, 2.35) and functional status (regression coefficient 3.6, 95% CI: 3.53, 3.79).

conclusionThose with diabetes and criminal justice involvement experience concentrated risk for poor mental health outcomes. Our findings suggest that mental health interventions may be imperative to achieving control of diabetes in the justice-involved population.
