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

backgroundEvaluating and addressing the mental and behavioral health issues of patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) during the rehabilitation process is essential. This systematic review and meta-analysis investigated the prevalence of mental disorders post-traumatic SCI and evaluated psychosocial interventions, leveraging a Knowledge Graph of Spinal Cord Injury (SCIKG) to overcome limitations of traditional literature searches.

methodsThe SCIKG integrated structured ontologies (SNOMED CT, UMLS, MeSH) to enable hierarchical semantic reasoning across mental disorder subconcepts. SPARQL queries identified literature from PubMed, Embase, PsycINFO, Web of Science, and Cochrane Central up to July 2025, supplemented by citation tracing. Two researchers independently screened studies against predefined criteria. Prevalence was pooled using DerSimonian-Laird random-effects models (RevMan 5.4; Stata metaprop) to account for heterogeneity (I

conclusionsMental disorders are prevalent and heterogeneously distributed post-SCI, influenced by cultural, methodological, and injury-phase factors. Knowledge graphs enhance evidence synthesis precision, revealing critical gaps in assessment standardization. Routine screening with validated, culturally adapted tools is warranted. Future research must prioritize phase-stratified designs, SCI-specific diagnostic thresholds, and large-scale trials of tailored psychosocial interventions. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
