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

Over the last decade increasing attention has been focused on individuals that simultaneously meet the criteria of two or more mental disorders. One of these comorbid conditions, comorbid bipolar disorder and obsessive compulsive disorder, is relatively common among patients with a primary diagnosis of bipolar disorder. But there is little research about the diagnosis and treatment of this comorbid condition, particularly in China. The available studies are primarily cross-sectional studies with small samples, so they are of limited use in understanding the etiology and course of this combined condition. A review of the limited literature suggests that this is a relatively severe, refractory subtype of bipolar disorder that only occasionally merits being considered a comorbid disorder. Larger prospective studies are needed to clarify the etiology, prognosis, and appropriate treatment for this comorbid condition.
