Article in The Psychiatric quarterly, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
This study aimed to investigate the relationships of family emotional support and negative family interactions with the quality of life among Chinese people with mental illness. Furthermore, it examined the mediating role of internalized stigma in these relationships. One hundred and twenty-five Chinese adults with mental illness were recruited from community mental health service centers in Hong Kong. The results show that both family emotional support and negative family interactions were related to the quality of life. Negative family interactions had a stronger effect on the quality of life compared to family emotional support. Internalized stigma partially mediated the relationship between negative family interactions and the quality of life. These findings suggest that, for Chinese people with mental illness, interventions aimed at promoting quality of life should consider enhancing family emotional support and reducing negative family interactions. In addition, mental health service providers could consider using family approaches to address internalized stigma in the effort of improving the quality of life for their service users.
