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

Background and objectives: Veterans with a history of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) often report persistent post-concussive symptoms (PPCS). Clinical care guidelines recommend psychoeducation as well as assessment and treatment of the prevalent comorbid psychiatric, sleep, and pain conditions known to contribute to and amplify PPCS. The purpose of this site-randomized pragmatic trial is to examine the effectiveness of a novel 5-week cognitive rehabilitation/self-management intervention designed to increase engagement in treatment of comorbid conditions following mTBI evaluation in Veterans with cognitive PPCS. Methods: On-TRACC (Tools for Rehabilitation and Cognitive Care), a 5-session manualized intervention, will be clinically rolled out at two Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Polytrauma sites, in randomized order, approximately a year apart. Veterans who complete a Comprehensive Traumatic Brain Injury Evaluation (CTBIE) after the clinical roll-out will be offered On-TRACC if deemed clinically appropriate by CTBIE clinical providers. Data collected from retrospective review of electronic health records (EHR) will be used to evaluate treatment engagement patterns for one year after CTBIE or one year after completion of On-TRACC for those who engage in the intervention. Participants receiving the On-TRACC intervention (n = 75) will be compared to those who complete the CTBIE but do not receive On-TRACC (n = 75). To evaluate clinical effectiveness and minimize sampling bias, no data will be gathered from participants directly. Projected outcomes: The primary aim is to examine whether On-TRACC participation improves engagement in treatment of secondary conditions recommended by the CTBIE provider.
