Auditory hallucinations in a cross-diagnostic sample of psychotic disorder patients: a descriptive, cross-sectional study.
Article in Comprehensive psychiatry, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 27 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundAuditory hallucinations (AH) are a cardinal feature of schizophrenia spectrum disorders. They are not disease specific, however, and can occur in other conditions, including affective psychoses.
methodsIn this descriptive, cross-sectional study, we examined AH in relation to other psychotic symptoms, mood symptoms, illness severity, and functional status in 569 patients with psychosis (n = 172 schizophrenia, n = 153 schizoaffective disorder, n = 244 bipolar disorder with psychotic features).
resultsA total of 323 (56.7%) patients reported a lifetime history of AH (75.6% of patients with schizophrenia, 71.9% schizoaffective disorder, and 34.0% bipolar disorder). The mean score for the hallucinations item (P3) of the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale in the AH group was 3.66 ± 1.79, indicating mild to moderate state hallucinations severity. Auditory hallucinations were strongly associated with hallucinations in other sensory modalities and with the first-rank symptoms of delusions of control, thought insertion, and thought broadcasting. Multivariate analysis showed that AH were associated with lower education even after controlling for diagnosis, age, and sex. There was no association between AH and functional status as measured by the Multnomah Community Ability Scale.
conclusionsAuditory hallucinations are associated with specific clinical features across the continuum of both schizophrenic and affective psychoses independent of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition, diagnosis.
