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

A psychiatrist, in India, unlike in the western developed world often is required to play dual role of being a treating psychiatrist and that of an expert witness for the same patient. In the clinical scenario, the principle of therapeutic alliance comes into play, while in the court of law, he/she needs to play the role of assisting the judicial system to deliver "justice." Psychiatrist role in the court is directed by the court rules and not by the clinical rules. This chapter aims to describe the various roles played by the psychiatrist in the court room and provides a basic outline of the medicolegal expectations from a psychiatrist.
