Neighborhood environmental deprivation predicts the generalized neurocognitive deficit in schizophrenia.
Article in Schizophrenia research, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThe generalized neurocognitive deficit is a core feature of schizophrenia (SZ). However, no current treatments have demonstrated satisfactory efficacy in remediating cognitive impairment in this population. This lack of treatment progress might be due in part to the failure to consider broader environmental factors and social determinants of health. The current paper explored the contributing role of these factors to the generalized neurocognitive deficit in SZ.
methodsParticipants included 114 outpatients with SZ and 117 matched healthy controls (CN) who completed a cross-sectional study. Cognitive impairment was assessed by the MATRICS Consensus Cognitive Battery (MCCB). Environmental deprivation was measured by Area Deprivation Index (ADI). Rurality was measured by the rural urban continuum code (RUCC). A linear regression model was fitted to predict MCCB total score with ADI, RUCC, and the interaction between ADI and RUCC as predictors.
resultsThe overall model was significant, F = 8.06, p < .001, R
conclusionsNeighborhood-level environmental deprivation predicted cognitive impairment in SZ. This highlights the need to incorporate environment-focused interventions when treating cognitive impairment in SZ.
