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
Personality disorders are among the most common mental disorders in older age and are associated with a range of negative outcomes in physical and emotional health as well as in interpersonal functioning. Several screening tools have been validated with older patients and can aid in diagnosis. The presence of a personality disorder is associated with increased risk of cognitive decline, and cognitive disorders may mimic personality disorders. As a result, an evaluation of cognitive function is an essential part of assessing for a personality disorder. Emerging evidence points to the promise of dialectical behavioral therapy and schema therapy for older patients with personality disorders. Second-generation antipsychotics and mood stabilizers have been found to be effective for some personality disorders in the general adult population, but no such studies have been conducted with older adults.
