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

objectiveCommunity settings, such as homes, community-based organizations, and schools, are important loci for addressing intimate partner violence (IPV). We identified and synthesized studies on the role of community health professionals in preventing IPV. More specifically, we considered the range and type of interventions used by community health professionals in community settings and whether these interventions appear to be effective in reducing IPV.

designWe systematically searched four databases for empirical peer-reviewed articles based in the U.S. through August 2024, following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) guidelines.

resultsWe included 45 articles published between 1999 and 2024, spanning quantitative and qualitative study designs. The community health professionals described were most commonly nurses, often delivering home-based interventions focused on perinatal women. Activities related to IPV included providing health education in schools, building community or organizational capacity, providing direct service and case management, and providing coaching and social support to empower individuals.

conclusionsCommunity health professionals have an important role in effectively preventing IPV. Additional research is needed to guide these professionals in promoting and implementing a range of IPV interventions in communities, particularly those focused on primary prevention of IPV.
