Prevalence of Health-Related Social Needs: Inpatient Versus Ambulatory Pediatric Populations.
Article in The Journal of pediatrics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectiveTo compare the prevalence of unmet health-related social needs (HRSNs) among pediatric patients in ambulatory and inpatient settings within a tertiary children's hospital in Bronx, New York. STUDY
designThis was a retrospective study of patients ≤20 years old who were screened for unmet HRSNs between November 1, 2023, and November 30, 2024. We compared inpatient and ambulatory pediatric samples using unadjusted and adjusted logistic regression models.
resultsOverall, 29 233 patients were screened for HRSNs during the study period, with 25 909 (88.6%) patients screened in ambulatory settings and 3324 (11.4%) in inpatient units. The prevalence of unmet HRSNs was 12.6% in the ambulatory setting and 28.1% in the inpatient setting. Hospitalized patients had greater odds (aOR 2.41, 95% CI 2.20-2.63) of reporting at ≥1 unmet HRSNs compared with ambulatory patients. Hospitalized patients also demonstrated greater odds of reporting needs within each individual HRSNs domains. Within the inpatient sample, those 12-17 years of age had lower odds of unmet HRSNs than patients 0-5 years of age (aOR 0.75, 95% CI 0.61-0.92). Those who spoke Spanish (aOR 1.80, 95% CI 1.49-2.19) or identified their race and ethnicity as Hispanic (aOR 2.24, 95% CI 1.31-3.81), Non-Hispanic Black (aOR 2.48, 95% CI 1.45-4.25), or other (aOR 1.82, 95% CI 1.02-3.25) had greater odds of unmet HRSNs than English-speaking and Non-Hispanic White patients, respectively.
conclusionsWithin the study, children who were hospitalized were more likely to have unmet HRSNs compared with patients who were ambulatory. Inpatient focused interventions are needed to support hospitalized families.
