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

purposeThis study intended to analyze the prevalence of physical diagnoses at psychiatric inpatient hospital wards.

methodsFor this purpose we used partially aggregated administrative data from routine diagnostic documentation of Austrian hospitals. All psychiatric and physical main and secondary diagnoses according to ICD-10 of all psychiatric inpatient units in Austria of the years 2007 were used.

resultsOf 79,027 psychiatric hospital admissions 75,224 received a psychiatric and 3803 a somatic main diagnosis at discharge. Diseases of the vascular system (20 %) were the most frequent somatic diagnoses, followed by endocrine and metabolic diseases (16.4 %) and neurological diseases (14.4 %). Among patients suffering from schizophrenia, the most frequent physical diagnoses were endocrine and metabolic diseases. Among those with affective disorders, vascular diseases as well as endocrine and metabolic diseases were found most often.

conclusionsPhysical diagnoses are very common among psychiatric inpatients. Mass screening and specialized prevention programs should be evaluated regarding their effectiveness for this population.
