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

objectiveTo examine, among persons discharged from inpatient rehabilitation for traumatic brain injury (TBI), the degree to which pre-TBI factors were associated with post-TBI hospitalization for psychiatric reasons. The authors hypothesized that pre-TBI psychiatric hospitalization and other pre-TBI mental health treatment would predict post-TBI psychiatric hospitalization following rehabilitation discharge, up to 5 years post-TBI.

settingFive Veterans Affairs Polytrauma Rehabilitation Centers.

participantsParticipants with nonmissing rehospitalization status and reason, who were followed at 1 year ( N  = 1006), 2 years ( N = 985), and 5 years ( N = 772) post-TBI.

designA secondary analysis of the Veterans Affairs TBI Model Systems, a multicenter, longitudinal study of veterans and active-duty service members with a history of mild, moderate, or severe TBI previously admitted to comprehensive inpatient medical rehabilitation. This study examined participants cross-sectionally at 3 follow-up timepoints. MAIN MEASURES: Psychiatric Rehospitalization was classified according to Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project multilevel Clinical Classifications diagnosis terminology (Category 5).

resultsRates of post-TBI psychiatric hospitalization at years 1, 2, and 5 were 4.3%, 4.7%, and 4.1%, respectively. While bivariate comparisons identified pre-TBI psychiatric hospitalization and pre-TBI mental health treatment as factors associated with psychiatric rehospitalization after TBI across all postinjury timepoints, these factors were statistically nonsignificant when examined in a multivariate model across all timepoints. In the multivariable analysis, pre-TBI psychiatric hospitalization was significantly associated with increased odds of post-TBI psychiatric hospitalization only at 1-year post-TBI (adjusted odds ratio = 2.65; 95% confidence interval, 1.07-6.55, P = .04). Posttraumatic amnesia duration was unrelated to psychiatric rehospitalization.

conclusionsStudy findings suggest the limited utility of age, education, and pre-TBI substance use and mental health utilization in predicting post-TBI psychiatric hospitalization. Temporally closer social and behavior factors, particularly those that are potentially modifiable, should be considered in future research.
