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

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a leading cause of long-term functional impairment in children. Rehabilitation services are critical for recovery, yet their use following pediatric TBI is highly variable, potentially contributing to heterogeneity in outcomes. This systematic review and meta-analysis, guided by the Andersen Behavioral Model of Health Services Use, aimed to characterize variability in rehabilitation service use and identify associated factors. Following a registered protocol, we searched Medline, PsycINFO, and Embase (last update June 2025) for observational studies involving participants ≤18 years with TBI that reported rehabilitation service use in relation to at least one individual or contextual factor. Study screening and data extraction were dually and independently completed. Rehabilitation service use data included inpatient and outpatient functional therapies, behavioral health services, and academic supports. Study risk of bias was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Twenty-four studies (N
