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

Objectives: Domestic Abuse (DA) is a public health concern impacting multiple sectors. Partnerships and coordinated responses from statutory agencies are vital to ensure DA survivors' needs are met, but this is impeded by the accessibility of quality DA data. We present an innovative data sharing and visualisation tool (DAVIT) and its perceived potential to improve DA insight and multi-agency collaborations. Study design: Qualitative exploratory study. Methods: DAVIT was developed by Surrey County Council (SCC) through a consultation and prioritisation process with multi-agencies interested in DA. Focus group discussions (FGDs) were conducted on Zoom with representatives of agencies responding to DA in Surrey area to obtain their views regarding the relevance, acceptability and the potential for implementing DAVIT into practice. Qualitative data analysis was guided by the updated Consolidation Framework of Implementation Research (CFIR). Results: Fifteen individuals representing seven agencies participated in 1-h long FGDs. Participants perceived DAVIT as well-designed, simple to use and adaptable to the local context but it needed improvements in data quality and comprehensiveness. Our findings suggest that DAVIT could enable intelligent planning and allocation of resources, delivery of targeted interventions and commissioning of DA service. Organisations' networks and connections, favourable data governance structure, policies, and regulations (outer settings); availability of resources, knowledge & information (inner settings); and individuals' capacity, competence and support from high-level leaders will all influence the implementation of DAVIT into practice. Conclusions: DAVIT is acceptable and if improved and successfully implemented into practice could improve DA services. Provision of minimal training to data officers in organisations will maximize the utility of DAVIT. A clear data governance structure and data sharing framework will help the implementation of DAVIT.
