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

The biopsychosocial model for providing holistic care after traumatic injury requires consideration of the social factors that influence health outcomes in addition to management of physical wounds. Social drivers of health (SDOH) such as interpersonal safety, food insecurity, housing instability, transportation needs, and utility needs comprise the five domains that the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services now require hospitals to screen for. In this article, we will (1) describe the impact of SDOH on injuries and outcomes in trauma patients, (2) describe the value and importance of screening, and (3) provide examples of effective and impactful interventions trauma centers have or may use to improve SDOH in the communities they serve. Through collaboration and intentionality, screening for SDOH can occur at trauma centers, near and far, and serve as a critical step to integrating social care into trauma care.
