Using Radiology as a Screening Tool to Identify Intimate Partner Violence.
Article in Journal of the American College of Radiology : JACR, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
objectiveTo identify imaging utilization patterns and radiologically evident injuries suggestive of intimate partner violence (IPV).
methodsThis retrospective case-control study analyzed historical imaging reports from women reporting physical IPV between 2013 and 2018 ("cases"; n = 265; 6,401 imaging studies) and age- and race-matched controls not reporting IPV (n = 875; 13,462 imaging studies). Adjusted incidence rate ratios (aIRRs) were calculated using Poisson regression to compare imaging utilization by organ system or modality. Logistic regression calculated adjusted odds ratios (aORs) for canceled studies and studies conducted in the emergency department (ED), overnight, or on weekends. Injury patterns were assessed by calculating aIRRs of injury by anatomic site and comparing synchronous and asynchronous injury detection. A time-to-event analysis using Cox proportional hazards regression compared the cumulative incidence of asynchronous injury in patients with at least one injury.
resultsPatients experiencing IPV underwent imaging at a higher rate than controls (aIRR: 1.5, 95 confidence interval [CI]: 1.5-1.6). They were more likely to cancel screening mammograms (aOR: 3.2, 95% CI: 1.8-5.7) and undergo imaging in the ED (aOR: 3.8, 95% CI: 2.9-5.0), overnight (aOR: 1.6, 95% CI: 1.3-1.9) and on weekends (aOR: 1.3, 95% CI: 1.1-1.5). The injury rate was higher in cases (aIRR: 15.1, 95% CI: 12.5-18.1), particularly for cranial (aIRR: 104.5, 95% CI: 14.2-770.1), facial (aIRR: 47.0, 95% CI: 18.9-117.0), and thoracic (aIRR: 32.6, 95% CI: 11.5-92.2) injuries. Cases were more likely to have multiple injuries in a single encounter (aOR: 4.7, 95% CI: 1.5-14.1) or multiple encounters with unique injuries (hazard ratio: 4.9, 95% CI: 2.6-9.3).
conclusionPatients experiencing IPV had higher rates of imaging studies, imaging utilization in the ED, weekend, and overnight settings, screening examination cancellation, and radiologically evident injuries than controls.
