Expressed Emotions and Coping among Relapsed Persons with Alcohol Dependence Syndrome: A Comparative Study.
Article in Indian journal of mental health. 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
backgroundAlcohol dependence is a global public health issue; it is a chronic and relapsing illness. Relapse is multifaceted by both neurobiological and psychosocial processes.
aimTo examine the expressed emotions and coping among persons with alcohol dependence.
methodsThe study was descriptive and hospital-based. A purposive sampling technique was used. This study was conducted at the Centre for Addiction Psychiatry, CIP, Ranchi. The total sample size was 50. Twenty-five persons with alcohol dependence who relapsed within six months following treatment formed a study group. Another 25 persons with alcohol dependence who were abstinent for a minimum period of six months after treatment formed a comparative group. Ways of coping questionnaire and the level of expressed emotions scale were used, and informed consent was taken from the participants. Chi-square and independent sample 't' test, Pearson's correlation was used to analyse the data.
resultsMean age of relapsed patients was 35.3 years (S.D±7.6), and abstinent patients were 35.4 yrs (S.D±6.8), years of education of relapsed patients score was 12 yrs ±2.63 and 11.6 yrs ±3.26 in abstinent patients. A majority (60% )of relapsed patients were from rural background, 92% in the abstinent group were employed. 60% of abstinent patients had a family history of alcohol dependence. Abstinent patients had scored significantly high in all the domains of ways of coping. Relapse patients had higher scores in perceived lack of emotional support, perceived irritability, perceived intrusiveness, and perceived criticism compared to abstinent patients.
conclusionThe study provided further evidence that coping and perceived expressed emotions significantly influenced relapse among persons with alcohol dependence.
