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

This study evaluated results from a novel psychology clinic integrated within a pediatric sports medicine (SM) program. Participants included 151 patients (mean age = 14.86, 62.25% female) seen for an initial psychology visit. Patients completed self-report measures, and referral and patient characteristics were abstracted via medical record. The sample was heterogeneous in terms of demographic variables and illness- or injury-related factors. Most common referral reasons were anxiety, general coping, depression, and pain. Adjustment and anxiety disorders were the most common diagnoses, while pain management, sleep, school, and eating were also common areas of difficulty. Rates of previous mental health (MH) treatment (52.98%), attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) diagnosis (15.23%) or attention concerns (10.60%), and history of suicidal ideation (SI, 23.65%) were high. Youth in this sample endorsed poorer health-related quality of life (HRQOL) than comparative samples. Findings support the potential benefit of integrated psychological care to address a variety of MH challenges in pediatric SM.
