Utilization of Mental Health Services Among Black Adolescents During the COVID-19 Pandemic: a Narrative Review of the Literature.
Review in Current pediatrics reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Purpose of Review: Black youth have disproportionately experienced inequities and barriers to care in accessing mental health services. The purpose of this review is to offer a summary of the currently available literature on mental health service utilization by Black youth during the COVID-19 pandemic, compared to prior. A narrative review was conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, psychINFO, and Embase from March 1, 2020 to September 1, 2022, to find studies that examined differences in the utilization of mental health services among Black youth. Recent Findings: Our results found only 3 studies which examined pre and during the COVID-19 mental health utilization rates among Black youth. Among these studies, time period, study design, sample size, race data, and change in mental health utilization were evaluated. Summary: From these results, we found that Black youth were overall less likely to utilize services for mental health during the pandemic. However, there were also findings that offer insights into innovative strategies to meet the needs of this unique population. As mental health service utilization has decreased and been slower to rebound from the pandemic compared to other health services, additional research on this topic is needed to ensure that the mental health needs of Black youth are being met.
