Relationship Between Employment Status and Unstable Periods in Outpatients with Bipolar Disorder: A Multicenter Treatment Survey for Bipolar Disorder in Psychiatric Outpatient Clinics (MUSUBI) Study.
Article in Neuropsychiatric disease and treatment, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Purpose: To clarify the relationship between the length of unstable periods and employment status of patients with bipolar disorder. Patients and Methods: Medical records of outpatients with bipolar disorder who visited 176 member clinics of the Japanese Association of Neuro-Psychiatric Clinics were investigated during September-October 2016, and details of their medical care and employment were surveyed using a questionnaire. The odds ratios (ORs) of length of unstable period and unemployment were analyzed with a logistic regression model. Results: The study included 816 patients, of whom 707 were employed full-time (continuous employment) and 70 were unemployed (loss of employment). Univariate analysis showed that ORs were statistically significant for patients who were unstable for "almost all" of the year (OR = 10.4 [4.48-24.28] p < 0.001), but not for "few" unstable periods (OR = 1.06 [0.56-1.98] p = 0.849) and for "significant" unstable periods (OR = 1.65 [0.73-3.74] p = 0.231) were not significantly different. Multivariate analysis showed that ORs were statistically "significant" for patients who were unstable for "almost all" (OR = 12.1 [4.37-33.3] p < 0.001), but not for "few" unstable periods (OR = 1.07 [0.55-2.07] p = 0.846) and for "significant" unstable periods (OR = 1.62 [0.66-3.98] p = 0.290) did not differ significantly. Conclusion: Patients with bipolar disorder with a long unstable period were associated with a higher risk of unemployment.
