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

Introduction Deinstitutionalization has led to various changes in the utilization of healthcare services. The increased focus on treating patients within the community has led to variations in the utilization patterns of inpatient units. Shifts in demographic variables and disease-related, system-based, and economic factors have been observed. Due to the paucity of recent literature, this study was planned to assess the characteristics and treatment patterns in an acute inpatient psychiatric unit of a university hospital. Methods A retrospective observational study reviewing electronic medical records of patients in the context of demographic, disease-related, treatment-related, and system-based data was conducted over five years. Quantitative data were analyzed through descriptive statistics. Linear regression was used to study each variable across time. Results There was an increase in neurodevelopmental disorders (
