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

purposeEffective measurement of positive child health is critical in improving public health. A proposed measure of positive health, a positive child health index (PCHI), is based on how many of 11 specific physical, developmental, and mental health conditions a child has (ranging from 0 to 11). Accepted measures of positive health, Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information System (PROMIS®) measures of global health, meaning and purpose, and life satisfaction, are based on child and caregiver perceptions.

methodsThe sample comprised 3713 children aged 5 to 17 years from the NIH Environmental influences on Child Health Outcomes (ECHO) Cohort with data to calculate PCHI and at least 1 child- or caregiver-reported PROMIS measure. Linear regressions were performed to test the associations between each PROMIS measure T-score and the PCHI, adjusting for gestational age, child sex, child age, and maternal factors (age, education, income).

resultsThe PROMIS measure associated most strongly with PCHI was caregiver-reported global health, followed by child-reported global health. Caregiver-reported life satisfaction and child-reported meaning and purpose were higher for children with a PCHI = 0 compared with children with 3 or more health conditions but not when compared with children with only 1 or 2 conditions. Among children with 4 or more conditions, girls reported lower global health than boys. Sex differences were not found for caregiver-reported measures.

conclusionPROMIS measures and PCHI offer complementary information on positive child health. PROMIS measures are intended as measures of a person's perception of their health, whereas PCHI reflects a cumulative impact of chronic health conditions from the perspective of health care systems. Both viewpoints are informative in public health promotion.
