Review in Der Nervenarzt, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe needs for assistance, support and treatment of older people with severe mental illnesses (SMI) are very high and linked to additional age-associated somatic diseases and impairments. Old people prefer to live independently in their own homes and to receive necessary treatment and support there; however, a resettlement in a residential nursing home is often necessary due to a lack of alternatives.
objectiveWhat is the current treatment reality in Germany for old people with SMI in their own homes and in residential nursing homes? How can coercive measures in this context be prevented?
methodsSelected results from the scientific literature on psychogeriatric care models in older people with SMI are summarized and discussed.
resultsMultiprofessional psychogeriatric complex treatment models for older patients that include home visits and are adapted to the severity of mental disease are not available in Germany due to the lack of cross-sectoral network structures. Around 30% of the 730,000 nursing home residents in Germany experience coercive practices, whereas person-centered nursing concepts as well as guideline conform and individualized nonpharmacological treatment strategies and milieu therapeutic concepts are not sufficiently available.
conclusionThe German healthcare system is in urgent need of multiprofessional psychogeriatric home treatment models in old people with severe mental illness in order to prevent worsening of psychiatric and somatic symptoms, to maintain individual social involvement, to strengthen individual autonomy and participative decision making and to protect from coercion. Multiprofessional expertise is essential as well as effective age-appropriate service models with multiprofessional teams delivering domiciliary visits and connecting complementary services for individual treatment requirements as part of the German health care system.
