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

backgroundUp-to-date and representative data across all populations, as well as inclusive data systems, are essential for evidence-based health policy. However, there are considerable gaps in the availability and linkage of migration-related health data. Using the example of the mental health of children and adolescents (ChAd) with a history of migration, this analysis provides an overview of available data sources in Germany and evaluates their usability for public health reporting (PHR).

methodsWithin the STRONGDATA-Kids project, data sources since 2000 were mapped if they included information on the mental health of ChAd with a history of migration and a sample size of n ≥ 1000. Data quality and barriers to access and use were assessed using a scorecard comprising eight dimensions.

resultsA total of 37 data sources were identified. Since 2019, a diversification in the use of migration-related indicators can be observed, particularly with regard to country of birth (including that of parents). Personal resources and resilience, as well as emotional and behavioural problems, were most frequently assessed. Routine data show strengths in standardisation and reliability, while surveys ensure timely provision of data and flexibility. The main access barriers to routine data and surveys occur at the structural level, partly due to decentralised responsibilities. DISCUSSION: Routine data and surveys are complementary and both indispensable for PHR. Despite broader use of migration-related indicators, further methodological and structural developments, such as standardised indicator sets, diversity-oriented research strategies and systematic data linkage are needed to validly represent the mental health of ChAd.
