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

backgroundScreening for adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and resilience in pregnancy is a promising practice for mitigating ACEs-related health complications. Yet, the best follow-up for pregnant patients with high ACEs and/or low resilience has not been established.

objectiveThis study evaluates referrals to and participation in an embedded health psychologist (EHP) intervention for pregnant patients with ACEs and/or low resilience. MATERIALS AND

methodsPatients in 3 Kaiser Permanente Northern California medical centers with ACEs who had also received resilience screening during standard prenatal care and who were participating in an EHP intervention were included (N = 910). The authors used multivariable logistic regression to examine whether ACEs (0, 1-2, 3+) and resilience (high vs low) were associated with referrals to and participation in EHP intervention. They also evaluated the impact of EHP intervention through clinician (N = 53) and patient (N = 51) surveys.

resultsPatients with 3+ vs 0 ACEs were more likely to receive an EHP referral (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 2.89, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.93-4.33) and were more likely to participate in EHP intervention (aOR = 2.85, 95% CI: 1.87-4.36). Those with low vs high resilience were also more likely to receive an EHP referral (aOR = 1.86, 95% CI: 1.32-2.62) and participate in EHP (aOR = 1.71, 95% CI: 1.19-2.44). When ACEs and resilience were combined, those with high ACEs and low resilience had the greatest odds of referrals and participation. Patients and clinicians reported positive experiences with EHP intervention.

conclusionPatients with higher ACEs and lower resilience scores were more likely to be referred to and participate in EHP intervention, suggesting that at-risk patients can be successfully linked with a health psychologist when accessible within obstetric care.
