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

objectiveInpatient settings provide unique opportunities to deliver sexual health services, such as long-acting reversible contraception (LARC), including intrauterine devices and contraceptive implants, to adolescents. This study aimed to (1) characterize general inpatient screening and management of sexual health services by region and (2) assess clinician preferences about inpatient LARC training. PATIENTS AND

methodsWe conducted a convergent parallel mixed-methods study with a national online survey and semistructured interviews among pediatric residents, fellows, advanced practice providers, and midlevel clinicians. We analyzed survey data with descriptive and bivariate statistics with significance set at .05 to evaluate sexual health screening and management by region. We analyzed interview data using an iterative deductive and inductive approach and coupled quantitative and qualitative findings.

resultsOverall, 669 clinicians completed the survey and 32 clinicians participated in interviews. Survey and interview findings supported one another. Southern participants reported less screening (χ2(5) = 16.7; P = .01) or management (χ2(5) = 17.0; P = .01) of sexual health needs than other regions. Qualitative findings included the following: (1) gaps in inpatient sexual health services and barriers to training; (2) successful implementation of inpatient sexual health training including contraceptive implants; and (3) clinician concerns about future implementation of inpatient LARC training and perceived solutions to improve feasibility.

conclusionsContraceptive implant training might be prioritized by future programs given its feasibility. Future studies can design educational interventions for inpatient clinicians who work with adolescents to ensure adequate delivery of sexual health services tailored to the region of the country.
