Measurement-based Care in Psychiatry-Past, Present, and Future.
Review in Innovations in clinical neuroscience, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 62 papers, 3 of them syntheses 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
The authors define measurement-based care (MBC) in psychiatry as the use of validated clinical measurement instruments to objectify the assessment, treatment, and clinical outcomes, including efficacy, safety, tolerability, functioning, and quality of life, in patients with psychiatric disorders. MBC includes two processes: routine assessments, such as measuring the severity of symptoms with rating scales, and the use of assessments in decision-making. MBC implementation was tested in the Texas Medication Algorithm Project and the German Algorithm Project and has been shown to improve patient outcomes. Even though more recent research has shown the many benefits of MBC compared to the usual care, MBC is still not the standard of care in psychiatric practice. This review article addresses the advantages of MBC, the barriers to implementing MBC in clinical practice, and the basic properties of MBC instruments. Recent developments in the 21st century that are expected to accelerate the adoption of MBC in clinical practice, including electronic health records, health information technology, and the development of the Standard for Clinicians' lnterview in Psychiatry (SCIP) as an MBC tool, will be reviewed. The authors recommend including MBC in psychiatry residency training to promote its use in future generations.
