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

Introduction: Failure of early identification and timely intervention of psychological disorders adversely affect the development of child to healthy adult. This study was done to estimate the prevalence of psychiatric disorders among 4-14 years age group children in urban slums as well as to find out the socio-demographic factors associated with it. Methods: A cross-sectional study with cluster sampling technique was conducted in urban slums of Thiruvananthapuram Corporation among 1029 participants. For the estimation of prevalence, CPMS was used and the socio-demographic factors were obtained using pretested interviewer-administered semi-structured questionnaire. Data were analysed using proportion with 95% CI, Chi-square, odds ratio and logistic regression. Results: Prevalence of childhood psychiatric disorders was 11.5% [95%CI (9.51-13.49)] and it was significantly associated with age ( Conclusion: This study findings highlight prevalence and the association of childhood and adolescence psychiatric disorders with several socio-demographic factors, which needs consideration while planning for implementation of mental health programme in the community.
