The Mortality Rate of 100% Service-Connected U.S. Veterans.
Article in SOCRA source, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Previously, it was unknown if 100% service-connected U.S. veterans have a diminished mortality. However, it is widely documented that this patient population experiences worse health due to their military service, so it is logical that their mortality will be diminished due to their worse health. This research study helped address an apparent gap in the literature regarding the mortality of 100% service-connected U.S. veterans. The objective of this research study was to answer the question, what is the average age at death of 100% service-connected U.S. veterans? This research study is a pilot study designed to help answer this initial question. This is important because it will help determine if the mortality of this U.S. veteran population is reduced due to their military service.
