The magnitude of disability in patients with schizophrenia in North West Ethiopia: A multicenter hospital-based cross-sectional study.
Article in Heliyon, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectiveTo assess the magnitude of disability and its associated factors among patients with schizophrenia in North West Ethiopia in selected hospitals, 2019.
designMulticenter hospital-based cross-sectional study.
settingGondar, Felege Hiwot, and Debre Tabor hospitals.
participantsWe recruit 420 participants for interviews using a systematic random sampling technique. MEASUREMENT: We collect the data by face-to-face interview. Disability was measured using the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Scale 2.0. Coded variables were entered into Epi data V.4.4.2 and exported to SPSS V.24 for analysis. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regressions with OR and 95% CI were employed.
resultA total of 423 participants were interviewed, with a response rate of 99.3%. The magnitude of disability in this study was 41.7 % (95 %CI: 36.9, 46.4). Current use of alcohol (AOR = 2.47,n95CI; 1.36,4.48), being jobless (AOR = 3.27, 95CI; 1.80, 5.93), had negative symptoms (AOR = 13.05,95CI, 7.58,22.45), had 5 and more years of illness (AOR = 2.75,95CI; 1.29,5.86), and had 5 and more years of untreated psychosis (AOR = 3.78,95CI, 1.85,7.75) were predictors of disability. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION: The magnitude of disability in this study was 41.7 %. Avoidance of alcohol usage, early initiation of treatment, creating job opportunities, and giving special emphasis to patients having negative symptoms is recommended.
