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

backgroundSchools are one of the most common settings in which youth seek mental health services, yet existing school-based mental health interventions are often difficult to implement due to time, cost, and staffing limitations. Digital, self-administered Single Session Interventions (SSIs) are evidence-based supports that are intentionally structured to deliver a clinically-meaningful dosage of evidence-based content within one session. Although multiple studies have demonstrated the clinical effectiveness of school-based SSIs, there have been no systemic efforts to understand how SSIs can be practically implemented in schools. The goal of this project is to partner with students, parents, and school staff to identify factors that impact the implementation of SSIs and understand how SSIs can be sustainably integrated as mental health supports into school mental health infrastructure.

methodsWe will conduct focus groups (five groups, total n = 35-45) among community members (i.e., students, parents/caregivers, teachers, school administrators, and school mental health providers) to assess perceived facilitators and barriers to the effective implementation of evidence-based SSIs in schools (Aim 1). We will then work in partnership with community members (n = 10-15) to co-design multi-level implementation strategies (i.e., student-directed, staff-directed, system-directed) for increasing uptake and promoting sustainability of school-based SSIs (Aim 2). We will use inductive coding to thematically analyze qualitative data from group sessions. This study is being conducted within the Lake Washington School District in the Seattle, Washington region. DISCUSSION: The proposed project will be the first to investigate facilitators and barriers to real-world implementation of SSIs in schools and strategies to improve implementation. Future studies may test the effectiveness of the generated implementation strategies on outcomes such as SSI uptake over time.
