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

Introduction: Insight in psychosis has been associated with psychosis remission, treatment compliance and better functioning, but also with depression, increased suicide risk and worse subjective wellbeing. This insight paradox has not been sufficiently studied. Methods: Participants ( Results: At baseline and at week 4 better insight was cross-sectionally associated with higher rates of psychosis remission, lower illness severity and better psychosocial functioning ( Conclusions: Insight was cross-sectionally associated with positive and negative clinical measures at baseline, but the latter was not replicated at 4 weeks. Improvement in insight over 4 weeks was not linked with any adverse outcome, offering reassurance to those making efforts to enhance insight early in treatment.
