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

backgroundPatients suffering from severe mental disorders and who have an increased risk of violent behavior, tend to be insufficiently cared for until committing a violent offense leads to compulsory placement in a forensic psychiatric clinic.

objectiveThe concept of the preventive outpatient clinic has been recently published in this journal. The aim of the study was to evaluate whether treatment in the outpatient clinic is preventive with respect to violence and whether there is a positive therapeutic outcome.

methodThe study design was quasi-experimental and longitudinal. The control group consisted of comparable patients from an adjacent healthcare catchment area. Measurements were taken on admission (t

resultsThe interaction effect between time and group was statistically significant for the R (risk management) subscale and the GFA values but not for the C (clinical risk) value (after Bonferroni correction), whereby controls were made for multiple testing.

conclusionThe hypothesis with respect to the efficacy of the treatment could be maintained regarding risk markers and global assessment of functioning. With respect to clinical parameters there was a positive tendency in the expected direction. The data therefore indicate a positive effect of the preventive outpatient clinic for the patients treated.
