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

PURPOSE/

objectiveInflicted traumatic brain injury (iTBI), or abusive head injury, is a common cause of mortality and disability among infants and toddlers. Social determinants of health (SDoH) have a critical and multifaceted impact on iTBI, influencing both prevalence and outcomes. The area deprivation index (ADI) is a comprehensive metric of SDoH developed to assist in understanding how community-level socioeconomic factors influence patient outcomes. The current study sought to describe the sociodemographic characteristics, including ADI, of a cohort of 373 infants and young children who sustained an iTBI. RESEARCH METHOD/

designThis study was a retrospective analysis utilizing a cohort of pediatric patients treated for iTBI at a large, tertiary care children's hospital serving seven states in the Rocky Mountain region.

resultsMortality prevalence was higher among older children, and older children were more likely to have a longer stay in the pediatric intensive care unit. Children who were identified as Hispanic/Latino lived in areas with greater socioeconomic disadvantage than children identified as non-Hispanic/Latino. Specifically, participants who were identified as White Hispanic/Latino lived in areas with greater disadvantage than children who were identified as White non-Hispanic/Latino. There were no other significant differences by race. Contrary to hypotheses, ADI was not significantly related to mortality, injury severity, or follow-up visits. CONCLUSIONS/IMPLICATIONS: While SDoH are known to influence outcomes in iTBI, it may be necessary to incorporate individual or family-level SDoH variables within this clinical sample and examine the interaction between individual and community-level factors.
