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

Migrant adolescents in therapy for psychological problems are at risk of poor attendance or even of dropping out. Transcultural psychotherapy has been developed in France to take cultural diversity into account in psychological treatment and to deal with the specific difficulties encountered in the psychotherapeutic treatment of this population. This study aims to assess adolescents' attendance rates to this form of psychotherapy and to explore the association of these rates with demographic, cultural, and clinical variables. We conducted a retrospective clinical cohort study of 148 adolescents aged from 11 to 20 years treated between 2008 and 2018 at two transcultural psychotherapy centers in Paris. Statistical analyses tested demographic, cultural, and clinical hypotheses. The main result was the high attendance rate at transcultural psychotherapy sessions among adolescents (77.8%). Attendance rates were not associated with age, gender, family size, generation of migration, or cultural area of origin, but were significantly linked to support in therapy, specifically, the presence at the first transcultural psychotherapy session of the first-line therapist, an interpreter, or both. Transcultural psychotherapy appears to be an effective method for addressing the complex symptoms experienced by migrant adolescents. Better attendance at sessions is statistically significantly associated with factors favoring a therapeutic alliance, specifically, the presence of the first-line therapist or an interpreter in TPT sessions and the existence of support from a social worker. The holistic approach of transcultural psychotherapy to adolescent care may explain the high attendance rates observed.
