A Pilot Investigation to Enhance Behavioral Health Referral for Perinatal, Low-Income Women With Mood Disorders.
Article in Progress in community health partnerships : research, education, and action, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundPerinatal, low-income, ethnic minority women with mood disorders underutilize behavioral health treatment. A community-academic partnership was used to address behavioral health initiation among this population.
objectivesWe sought to examine the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary outcomes of a behavioral health referral intervention with low-income, ethnic minority perinatal women diagnosed with mood disorders.
methodsAn open trial pilot study was conducted with 38 perinatal women. The behavioral health referral intervention consisted of two sessions of manualized referral strategies to enhance access to care. The main outcome was attendance at a behavioral health appointment.
resultsApproximately 55% of the perinatal women attended a behavioral health appointment within 2 months (i.e., initiated treatment). Intervention participation rates and ratings were high. Depression scores decreased from baseline to after the intervention.
conclusionsThe findings demonstrated favorable outcomes compared with other referral interventions. The behavioral health referral intervention shows promise for implementation in community settings.
