[Diseases of the schizophrenia spectrum disorder in old age : Diagnostic and therapeutic challenges].
Review in Zeitschrift fur Gerontologie und Geriatrie, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundThe number of people with diseases of the schizophrenia spectrum in old age will increase significantly in the coming years. In the literature the topics of schizophrenia and delusional disorders in older and old people are inadequately represented.
aimThis article gives an overview of the most important diagnostic and differential diagnostic characteristics. Another important aspect is the pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment options in old age. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe S3 guidelines of the German Association for Psychiatry, Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics (DGPPN) from 2006, the guidelines of the World Federation of Societies of Biological Psychiatry (WFSBP) from 2012, 2013, 2015 and the consensus statement of the Austrian Association for Neuro-Psychopharmacology and Biological Psychiatry (ÖGPB) from 2016 formed the basic literature for this review. In addition, a targeted search in the databases PubMed, PubPsych and Cochrane Library as well as in German Journals, such as DerNervenarzt, Neuropsychiatrie, Psychiatrische Praxis and Zeitschrift für Gerontologie und Geriatrie concerning the keywords schizophrenia, delusional disorder, diagnostics, therapy and older people was carried out.
resultsBesides aspects on epidemiology, clinical manifestation, diagnostics, differential diagnostics and course of the illness, pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment options are presented. CONCLUSION/DISCUSSION: In clinical practice a clear diagnostic assignment is often a challenge in older and very old people with psychotic symptoms, The necessary pharmacological treatment is available but is limited by tolerability, comorbidities and polypharmacy. Non-pharmacological treatment options have hardly been investigated.
