Integrating a trauma recovery center into an urban hospital setting serving multiply marginalized patients in the Southeastern United States.
Article in BMC health services research, 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
backgroundFew interpersonal violence survivors receive psychosocial services, and those who are multiply marginalized are among the least likely to receive needed care. Trauma recovery centers (TRCs) aim to reduce health disparities by increasing access to trauma-focused care. This study describes the initial adoption, implementation, and reach of the first TRC in the southeastern USA.
methodsFunding was awarded to support the adoption of the Grady TRC within an urban safety net hospital in Atlanta, Georgia, and interdisciplinary collaboration was leveraged to support implementation. The electronic health records of 3,238 adult patients seeking medical care were screened for TRC eligibility to determine the program's reach (2020-2023).
results53% (n = 1,712) of patients were eligible for TRC services; of these, 16.8% completed TRC intake assessments (n = 288; 84.4% Black, 58.3% female, 47.1% referred for gunshot wounds). Most TRC patients (68.1%; n = 196) screened positive for probable posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD); many endorsed severe anxiety (44.8%, n = 129) or depressive (23.6%, n = 68) symptoms. Most reported no/low alcohol and drug use.
conclusionsA demonstrable need for trauma-focused services was found among violence-exposed patients seeking public healthcare. Integrating the TRC model into institutions serving multiply marginalized patients may help increase access to trauma-focused care for those who may not otherwise receive it.
