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

Severe mental illness (SMI) is frequently accompanied by substantial impairments in psychosocial functioning. Psychosocial interventions (PSI), therefore, represent an essential component of evidence-based treatment. A key prerequisite for the utilization is adequate knowledge. The aim of this study was to assess the level of knowledge about PSI among individuals with SMI. A cross-sectional multicenter study was conducted among individuals with SMI aged 18 to 65 years (n = 397). Knowledge of PSI, along with sociodemographic, clinical and additional contextual characteristics was assessed. Linear regression analyses were performed to examine associations between PSI knowledge and potential predictors. Overall, participants with SMI were familiar with an average of 10 out of the 17 assessed interventions. Better knowledge was associated with the presence of a chronic physical illness (p = .027), a longer duration of psychiatric problems (p = .030) and higher GAF scores (p = .010). In contrast, having experienced divorce, separation, or widowhood compared to being single (p = .040), as well as having a migration background (p = .003), were associated with lower levels of knowledge. The findings highlight the need for more targeted dissemination of guideline-based information on PSI to individuals with SMI.
