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

aimDespite the potential benefits of e-health interventions for patients with psychosis, the integration of these applications into the clinical workflow and analysis of their long-term effects still face significant challenges. To address these issues, we developed the ReMindCare app. This app aims to improve the treatment quality for patients with psychosis. We chose to study the app in real world and pragmatic manner to ensure results will be generalizable.

methodsThis is a naturalistic empirical study of patients in a first episode of psychosis programme. The app was purpose-designed based on two previous studies, and it offers the following assessments: (a) three daily questions regarding anxiety, sadness and irritability; and (b) 18 weekly questions about medication adherence, medication side effects, medication attitudes and prodromal symptoms. The app offers preset alerts, reminders and the ability for patients to reach out to their clinicians. Data captured by the app are linked to the electronic medical record of the patient. Patients will use the app as part of their ongoing care for a maximum period of 5 years, and assessments will occur at baseline and at the end of the first, second and fifth years of app use.

resultsRecruitment started in October 2018 and is still ongoing.

conclusionsThe ReMindCare app represents early real-world use of digital mental health tools that offer direct integration into clinical care. High retention and compliance rates are expected, and this will in turn lead to improved quality of assessments and communication between patients and clinicians.
