Metacognitive Training to Improve Insight and Work Outcome in Schizophrenia.
Trial report in The Journal of nervous and mental disease, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
abstractIndividuals with psychotic disorders have deficits in metacognition. Thirty-four adults with schizophrenia were randomized to 2 months of metacognitive training (MCT) or a healthy living skills control group. All participants were enrolled in a work therapy program, followed by a supported employment program. Assessments were conducted at baseline, at the end of the 2-month active intervention, and at 4- and 12-month follow-ups. At the end of active intervention, the MCT group demonstrated greater improvement and better work behavior relative to controls. At follow-up, the MCT group demonstrated significantly greater insight and fewer positive symptoms and a greater percentage were employed in the community. We speculate that being better able to think about one's thoughts, recognize biases in thinking, and correct those thoughts may aid in responding to workplace challenges and hence improve work outcomes.
