Parent-Reported Academic Outcomes After a Mild Traumatic Brain Injury in the Pediatric Population.
Article in The Journal of school health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
backgroundMillions of children are diagnosed with a traumatic brain injury (TBI) each year, most being mild TBI (mTBI). The effect of mTBIs on academic performance is of significant importance. We investigate mTBI's impact on parent-reported academic outcomes in school-aged pediatric participants.
methodsThis cross-sectional survey study queried parents (N = 285) regarding letter grade performance and the presence or absence of academic accommodations before and after an mTBI, including complicated mTBI (c-mTBI, or mTBI with radiographic abnormality).
resultsWe found a parent-reported decline in letter grades following c-mTBI (p < .001), with no significant change following uncomplicated mTBIs. Degree and length of recovery were also associated with grade changes (p < .05). Those with no academic accommodations prior to the injury showed significant decreases in grades after injury regardless of post-injury accommodation status (p < .05). IMPLICATIONS OF SCHOOL HEALTH POLICY, PRACTICE, AND EQUITY: This study underscores the need for an improved framework of support to maximize academic performance of children following mTBI, especially in those with a c-mTBI and still recovering from their injury.
conclusionOur study identifies children who are at risk for adverse academic outcomes following mTBI. We encourage efforts to better support school nurses in this effort, including improved communication between health care teams and school teams.
