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

purposeSince January 2016, the Parma Department of Mental Health (in Italy) developed a specialized care program for Early Intervention (EI) in individuals at Clinical High Risk for Psychosis (CHR-P). As unfavorable outcomes other than transition to psychosis were not systematically reported in the current literature (thereby compromising more sophisticated prognostic stratifications), the aims of this research were (1) to investigate adverse outcome indicators (i.e., service disengagement, psychosis transition, hospitalization, prolonged functioning impairment, prolonged persistence of CHR-P criteria, suicide attempts) in an Italian CHR-P population enrolled within a specialized EI service across a 2-year follow-up period, and (2) to examine their relevant associations with sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of the CHR-P total sample at baseline.

methodsAll participants were young CHR-P help-seekers aged 12-25 years. They completed the "Comprehensive Assessment of At-Risk Mental States" (CAARMS) and the Health of the Nation Outcome Scale (HoNOS). Both univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed.

results164 CHR-P individuals were enrolled in this study. Across the follow-up, 30 (18.0%) dropped out the EI program, 23 (14%) transitioned to psychosis, 24 (14.6%) were hospitalized, 23 (14%) had a prolonged persistence of CHR-P criteria and 54 (47%) showed prolonged impairment in socio-occupational functioning.

conclusionAs almost half of our participants did not functionally remit over time, sustained clinical attention for young CHR individuals people should be offered in the longer term, also to monitor unfavorable outcomes and to improve long-term prognosis.
