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
background and hypothesisThe sexual and reproductive health (SRH) of young people with psychosis has been largely overlooked. We hypothesised that there are key deficiencies in the existing literature on the SRH of adolescents and young adults with psychotic disorders. STUDY
designWe conducted a systematic scoping review using Pubmed, Web of Science, Embase, PsycINFO, and CINAHL. We included empirical studies and case reports focused on SRH issues in young people (aged 14-24 years) with psychotic disorders. A qualitative synthesis was completed. Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Tools were utilized to assess study quality. STUDY
resultsSeventeen empirical studies and 52 case reports met inclusion criteria. Most focused on sexual dysfunction which was identified as common among this cohort and associated with both psychotic disorders and antipsychotics. The study population was more likely to engage in sexual risk-taking behavior and was at higher risk of sexually transmissible infections than those without psychosis. SRH topics of clinical relevance in older patients with psychosis such as pregnancy, abortion, sexual violence, coercion, sexual identity, and gender were poorly addressed in this younger group. We found empirical studies generally lacked identification and controlling of confounders whilst case reports provided limited description of mental health and SRH outcomes following clinical intervention.
conclusionResearch and clinical practice addressing sexual and reproductive health is needed for young people living with psychosis. To address research gaps future studies should focus on women's health, sexual violence, gender, and sexuality in young people with psychosis.
