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
Introduction: in Mali, there are no data on the prevalence of mental disorders. The purpose of this study was to describe the clinical and epidemiological features of patients hospitalised in the Department of Psychiatry. Methods: we conducted a cross-sectional study in the Department of Psychiatry at the University Hospital of Point G between January 2014 and December 2018. Data were collected from the medical records of 1105 patients hospitalised for psychiatric disorders. Results: the average age of patients was 32.6 ± 11.1 years, ranging from 13 to 82 years. Male patients accounted for 83.8% (926/1105) of enrolled subjects, 53.2% (588/1105) were single, 18.8% (208/1105) were not employed and 28.2% (310/1105) had primary education. Seventy-four percent (818/1105) had a history of psychiatric disorders, 22.7% (251/1105) were born to consanguineous parents. Drug use was reported in 42.9% (474/1105) of cases, including tobacco 32.6% (361/1105), cannabis 26.0% (287/1105) and/or alcohol 15.6% (172/1105). The demand for care came from families in 87.5% (967/1105) of cases. Aggression was the most common reason for consultation (44.5%; 492/1105). In 67.8% (749/1105) of cases, the diagnosis was schizophrenia, schizotypic disorders or delusional disorders. The first use of care was traditional in 58.7% (649/1105) of cases. Conclusion: people hospitalised for psychiatric disorders from 2014 to 2018 were predominantly young and male with a history of psychiatric disorders. They mainly had schizophrenia, schizotypic disorders and delusional disorders.
