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

introductionPeople diagnosed with borderline personality disorder experience persistent functional impairment despite current evidence-based treatment. Domains of daily living functioning, such as establishing a routine, household management and self-care, can be important goals for rehabilitation. This review aimed to scope and synthesise programmes that address the daily living functioning of people diagnosed with borderline personality disorder.

methodsThis review followed the PRISMA Extension for Scoping Reviews Checklist and the Joanna Briggs Institute scoping review methodological guidance. Eight databases (Medline, PsycINFO, ASSIA, CINAHL, Embase, Emcare, ProQuest Dissertations & Theses Global and Scopus) and grey literature were searched.

resultsForty-four records were found spanning 12 countries, from 1987 to 2025, comprising research studies, educational materials and programme summaries. Programmes included independent living skills development, residential facilities, outpatient treatment and occupational therapy, with rehabilitation and recovery the most frequently used approaches. The domains of daily living functioning were health (

conclusionsProgrammes supporting the daily living functioning of people diagnosed with borderline personality disorder exist. However, the evidence base is currently disparate. No single programme addressed all identified domains of daily living functioning. Comprehensive, evidence-based rehabilitation programmes addressing all domains of daily living functioning are needed to enable functional recovery for people diagnosed with borderline personality disorder.
