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

objectivePediatric mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) is a major public health concern. New psychiatric disorders (NPDs) can arise after mTBI, yet postinjury NPDs in nonclinical samples remain poorly understood.

methodsNPDs were prospectively characterized for youths ages 9-11 years who experienced an mTBI in their first year of participation in the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development study, compared with control groups of orthopedically injured and noninjured individuals; a broad set of preinjury factors was accounted for in analyses.

resultsBetween baseline (ages 9-10) and year 1 (ages 10-11), 135 youths had an mTBI, with 110 incurring a first lifetime mTBI. The prevalence of NPDs at the year-1 study visit was comparable among the injury groups, and mTBI did not predict NPDs at year 1. Preinjury psychiatric diagnoses significantly predicted NPDs (NPD-current [NPD-C] group: OR=2.18, 95% CI=1.30-3.61, p=0.003; NPD-any [NPD-A] group: OR=1.70, 95% CI=1.16-2.52, p=0.006), and self-reported Hispanic ethnicity was associated with lower odds of NPDs at year 1 (NPD-C group: OR=0.19, 95% CI=0.03-0.78, p=0.018; NPD-A group: OR=0.57, 95% CI=0.31-0.98, p=0.043).

conclusionsThese results suggest that for nonclinically selected youths with mTBI, in the first year after late childhood injury, mTBI is not associated with differential odds of NPDs. Preinjury psychiatric history predicted NPDs, and self-reported Hispanic ethnicity predicted lower odds of NPDs at year 1. Future studies are needed to further characterize psychiatric sequelae after pediatric mTBI across adolescence to identify risk and protective factors for targeted prevention and intervention strategies.
