10-year variability in high and low life satisfaction trajectories post-traumatic brain injury: a TBI model systems study.
Article in Brain injury, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeTo determine how life satisfaction changes across the first 10 years following traumatic brain injury (TBI).
methodsParticipants included 1,941 individuals from the TBI Model Systems database with life satisfaction data at 1-, 5-, and 10-years post-TBI. Based on Satisfaction With Life Scale scores, individuals were characterized as having one of the five 10-year life satisfaction trajectories: 'Stable High,' 'Stable Low,' 'Increased to High,' 'Decreased to Low,' and 'Unstable.' These were analyzed for group differences in demographics and psychosocial and functional outcomes.
resultsSixty percent participants had 'Stable High' or 'Increasing to High' trajectories. Approximately 25% had "Stable Low' or 'Decreasing to Low' trajectories, and approximately 15% had unstable trajectories. Higher life satisfaction trajectories were associated with the best psychosocial and functional outcomes whereas lower trajectories were associated with the worst psychosocial and functional outcomes. Trajectories were indistinguishable based on demographics.
conclusionLife satisfaction over the first 10 years following TBI is dynamic, with most individuals reporting high life satisfaction by 10 years post-TBI. Examination of psychosocial and functional factors related to life satisfaction trajectories may inform community-based intervention recommendations, resources, and supports to maximize long-term satisfaction with life.
