The University of Kansas Health System Outpatient Clinical Concussion Comprehensive Protocol: An Interdisciplinary Approach.
Article in Health services insights, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objective: The concussion team at The University of Kansas Health System outpatient rehabilitation spine center is comprised of experienced multi-disciplinary experts including physical therapists and a speech language pathologist. The team set forth with a purpose of creating and organizing an internal physical therapy clinical recommendation protocol for initial evaluations and subsequent treatments for the concussed patient. The aim of this paper is to share these recommendation protocols with other therapy teams and provide a foundational layout for treating the patient with post-concussion symptoms in an outpatient physical therapy clinical setting. Study design: Clinical recommendation protocol provides guidance for patients ages 10+ from initial evaluation through discharge with emphasis on evidence-based research in the areas of: oculomotor, cervical, vestibular, post-concussion migraine influence, mood disorders(such as anxiety and depression), exertion, and cognitive communicative dysfunction. Results: Finding a written, comprehensive clinical resource protocol for post-concussion outpatient evaluation(s) and treatment strategies can be difficult. This document serves as a resource for other outpatient concussion rehabilitation clinics, providing rationale, and objective measurement tools, for assessing and treating concussion patients. To the authors' knowledge, no other research has produced a practical, efficient evaluation tool to be utilized at bed side, condensing evidence-based research into an easy-to-use form. Conclusion: The University of Kansas Health System outpatient concussion rehabilitation center developed clinical recommendation protocols for concussion care. The intent was to standardize assessment and treatment for concussion patients and to share these objective measurement tools and procedures, focused on a team approach of concussion providers, as a clinical outline for both the novice and seasoned clinician specializing in the field of concussion work in an outpatient rehabilitation setting.
