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

This cross-sectional study identified variables associated with continuity of care among 327 patients with mental disorders receiving services from a variety of professionals in different Quebec settings. Based on the Andersen's Behavioral Model, a linear regression analysis was performed. Attention deficit and mood disorders were negatively associated with continuity of care, while substance use disorders and quality of life revealed positive associations. Consulting a psychologist was linked to weaker continuity of care whereas visiting a drug rehabilitation center, social support, and satisfaction with services were positively related. Fostering social support, comprehensive and integrated care, and facilitating access to psychologists could lead to improved continuity of care.
