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

A 21-year-old woman with moderate learning disability secondary to chromosome 2 microdeletion at q37 was admitted to a general adult psychiatric ward following a period of agitation with incessant pressure of speech, nihilistic delusions and worsening of sleep and eating patterns. Her presentation was preceded for a number of weeks by social stressors of an ill family member and another family member moving away. She had also been diagnosed and treated for a respiratory infection several weeks prior to presentation. Her presentation improved with low-dose antipsychotic medication and parallel input from the general adult mental health team and the psychiatry of intellectual disability team.
