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

IntroductionA validated psychosocial self-screening tool, MyHEARTSMAP, was used to screen hospitalized children, who often experience disproportionate mental health burdens. The primary objective compared the proportion of participants receiving psychosocial intervention between those with and without MyHEARTSMAP screening. Secondarily, we explored the utilization of resources at 3 months post-discharge.MethodsThis randomized control trial was conducted in an emergency department, enrolling 289 children being admitted. The intervention group completed MyHEARTSMAP, and results were shared with clinicians. The control group received standard care and completed MyHEARTSMAP following discharge. Health records were reviewed to document in-hospital management. Descriptive statistics and logistic regression modeling were used to evaluate the association between screening and intervention.ResultsPsychosocial intervention rates were higher in the intervention group (40.4%) than the control (32.9%), though this was not significant (RR = 1.28, 95% CI [0.95, 1.73],
