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

Introduction: Whole Health programs aim to integrate mental, physical, and social health to improve veteran well-being. Homeless-experienced veterans may face barriers to engagement owing to housing instability and comorbidities. This study evaluated Whole Health participation among homeless-experienced veterans at the VA Greater Los Angeles Care, Treatment, and Rehabilitation Service site compared with that among the broader VA Greater Los Angeles Healthcare System veteran population. Methods: A retrospective quality improvement study analyzed Whole Health participation among 619 homeless-experienced veterans at Care, Treatment, and Rehabilitation Service; 25,520 Whole Health participants at VA Greater Los Angeles Healthcare System; and 84,358 total VA Greater Los Angeles Healthcare System veterans. Chi-square and Results: Whole Health participation was higher among Care, Treatment, and Rehabilitation Service homeless-experienced veterans (42%) than among the broader VA Greater Los Angeles Healthcare System Whole Health population (22%) ( Conclusions: Whole Health programs may be effective and acceptable among homeless-experienced veterans when integrated into supportive housing environments.
