Integrated programs for common mental illnesses within primary care and community settings in Latin America: a scoping review of components and implementation strategies.
Article in Lancet regional health. Americas, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Integrated programs for common mental illnesses are evidence-informed practices yet to be routinely implemented in Latin America. It synthesizes the literature on integrated programs for common mental illnesses (anxiety, depression, and posttraumatic stress disorder) in Latin American primary care and community settings. It maps program components (the 'what') to the collaborative care model core components and implementation strategies (the 'how') to the Expert Recommendations for Implementing Change (ERIC) taxonomy. Results from 18 programs across six countries (Belize, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Peru) show wide heterogeneity in component and strategy combinations. Overall, provider-level components and strategies were more common than family- or community-level ones. 'Team-based care' was the most commonly reported component, and 'family/user engagement' the least. The most common implementation strategy was 'supporting clinicians,' while 'changing infrastructure' was the least. Programs commonly addressed depression and only four followed experimental designs. We found limited evidence on the potential mechanisms of integrated program components and strategies.
