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

Purpose: Despite the elevated risk of youth with disabilities experiencing sex trafficking, little is known regarding coordination among organizations that provide services critical to prevention. Methods: This study utilized social network analysis to explore the association between six organizational sectors and three coordination types (i.e., referrals, information and resource sharing, and trainings). Organizational representatives ( Results: Communication frequency was significantly associated with all coordination types. Among disability and violence prevention organizations, 71.9% of information and resource sharing ties and 12.5% of training ties were present. Violence prevention organizations sent more referrals to disability organizations than the inverse. Discussion: Future research should explore how coalition building among organizations occurs via interpersonal ties (e.g., boundary spanners). Findings can influence cohesive responses to sex trafficking that incorporate service needs of youth with disabilities.
