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

backgroundWomen who experience intimate partner violence (IPV) are at a high risk for injuries to the head, neck, and face that can result in a traumatic brain injury (BI). Despite increasing evidence of the high risk for BI in this vulnerable population, IPV-BI screenings remain critically under-implemented in community-based organizations (CBOs) serving IPV survivors. The aim of this community-engaged dissemination and implementation project was to co-identify implementation strategies to increase the adoption of IPV-BI screening and referral within intimate partner violence (IPV)-serving CBOs.

methodsWe used a modified Delphi method to prioritize 47 CBO relevant strategies from the Expert Recommendations for Implementation Change compendium to increase the adoption of BI screening and referral among IPV-serving CBOs. In Round-1, 14 Community-campus advisory board (CAB) members, including representatives from 10 CBOs prioritized relevant strategies in a virtual meeting. In Round-2, 62 CBOs staff members responded to a survey to refine a subset of prioritized strategies to 6–8 primary strategies that could be tested across the CBOs.

resultsCAB participants identified 21 strategies as particularly relevant to CBOs including 4 educational, 2 technical assistance, 5 staff and leadership, 4 management and evaluation, and 6 organizational workflow strategies. Survey responses indicated 7 of the 21 strategies were most consistently rated as relevant and feasible. The final list of 7 strategies included training opportunities, ongoing consultation, developing implementation plans, establishing local screening and referral protocols, soliciting survivor feedback, promoting adaptability, and tailoring strategies to CBO contexts.

conclusionsThis study highlights the importance of creating tailored implementation strategies within IPV-serving CBOs to enhance the adoption of brain injury screening and referral protocols. The identified strategies offer valuable insights into optimizing support for IPV survivors and advancing public health interventions.
