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

This study examined whether Perceived Criticism (PC) was related to community functioning in a sample of African-American consumers with schizophrenia. The study tested assumptions from the Expressed Emotion literature that were based primarily on samples of white consumers. The study found that PC affected psychiatric symptomatology but not psychosocial functioning. Greater family contact was strongly related to better psychosocial functioning. Findings suggested that the nature and impact of contact between consumer and family for this sample of African-Americans appears different from what has been found in white, middle-class samples.
