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 6 month randomized control trial investigated whether a novel text-messaging program impacted targeted clinical outcomes in patients with schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder (SAD). Forty patients were enrolled and completed baseline, 3-month and 6-month assessments. The intervention group received daily symptom check-in text messages, plus, a medication reminder or, inspirational quote text. The control group had treatment as usual. At 6 months the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale mean positive score was significantly lower and injectable medication compliance was significantly higher in the intervention group. Recovery scores were significantly higher at 3 months. Results suggest that this program may benefit individuals with schizophrenia/SAD who use text messaging. Further investigation in a larger sample appears warranted.
