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

objectiveThis study examined whether expansions of Affordable Care Act (ACA) coverage led to changes in insurance coverage and behavioral health treatment use among adults with past-year criminal legal interactions.

methodsNational Survey on Drug Use and Health data and a difference-in-differences design were used to compare changes in insurance coverage and behavioral health treatment use among respondents with a mental or substance use disorder, by past-year criminal legal involvement (N=103,818).

resultsPrior to ACA expansions, respondents with past-year criminal legal involvement (vs. without) were less likely to have insurance (61.5% vs. 79.3%) or to receive mental health treatment (34.7% vs. 36.3%). The ACA coverage expansions reduced insurance disparities for people with criminal legal involvement by almost 5 percentage points. No changes in behavioral health treatment use were found.

conclusionsFuture policies that help people with criminal legal involvement get connected to coverage and treatment are warranted to address persistent disparities in coverage and treatment receipt.
