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

Missouri homicide rates rose during the COVID-19 pandemic (2020-2023), spiking in 2022. Data obtained from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention database showed from 2018 to 2023, Black/African American American youth experienced the most firearm-related homicides before and during the pandemic. This study also found demographic differences between youth firearm suicide and homicide rates in Missouri.
