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

purposeEGOS is an epidemiological obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) cohort in Sweden. Individuals contributed DNA for genotyping and sequencing and completed a Swedish translation of the Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory-Revised (OCI-R), a self-report questionnaire for assessing the severity of OCD. This study aimed first to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Swedish translation of the OCI-R and then shed light on the frequency, severity, and symptom dimensions of OCD comorbid with other psychiatric disorders.

methodsOCI-R data were available for 1010 individuals diagnosed with OCD, and 124 individuals diagnosed with chronic tic disorders without OCD used as a comparison group. We first performed a confirmatory factor analysis to confirm the six-factor structure of OCI-R. Then, we estimated Cronbach's α coefficient and the generalizability coefficient to evaluate the internal consistency of the OCI-R. We linked the data from the Swedish national registries to access and analyze psychiatric comorbidities of OCD.

resultsThe Swedish translation of OCI-R demonstrated internal consistency and clear agreement with the OCI-R six-factor model. The mean total OCI-R score for females was significantly higher than for males. The most comorbid psychiatric condition to OCD were anxiety disorders (13.6%) and major depression (12%).

conclusionThe Swedish translation of OCI-R was a valid and reliable measure for assessing the severity of OCD. We observed that individuals with OCD frequently had additional comorbid psychiatric disorders and that the severity of OCD was significantly higher in individuals with at least one additional psychiatric comorbidity as compared to individuals with no psychiatric comorbidity.
