Childhood-onset schizophrenia: what do we really know?
Article in Health psychology and behavioral medicine, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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
Childhood-onset schizophrenia (COS) is a rare, chronic mental illness that is diagnosed in children prior to the age of 13. COS is a controversial diagnosis among clinicians and can be very difficult to diagnose for a number of reasons. Schizophrenia is a psychotic disorder characterized by hallucinations, delusions, flat affect, limited motivation and anhedonia. The psychotic nature of this disorder is quite disruptive to the child's emotional regulation, behavioural control and can reduce the child's ability to perform daily tasks that are crucial to adaptive functioning. Prior to the onset of schizophrenia, children often develop premorbid abnormalities, which are disturbances to a child's functioning that may serve as warning signs. These disturbances can manifest in a variety of behavioural ways and may include introversion, depression, aggression, suicidal ideation and manic-like behaviours. This article will review the clinical presentation of schizophrenia in children and examine the existing knowledge around aetiology, treatment approaches, assessment techniques and differential diagnostic considerations. Gaps in the literature are identified and directions for future research are discussed.
