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

introductionPrevention efforts have greatly reduced the prevalence of many communicable and non-communicable diseases worldwide. In contrast, prevention strategies for mental disorders remain in their infancy. This paper provides a summary of the key issues surrounding mental disorder prevention and proposes a framework for how to catalyze action in the area. MATERIALS AND

methodsThree core assumptions guide this work (1) the onset of mental disorders is often preventable, (2) among those individuals with a mental disorder, the trajectory of health and functioning can be shaped by external resources, and (3) many specific and generic risk and protective factors for mental disorders are associated with specific stages of the life course.

conclusionWe propose that the adoption of a life course approach to prevention can be clarifying and motivating for both research and practice.
