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

Background: Patients with cerebral palsy (CP) have an increased risk of developing mental health disorders. Aims: This paper is aimed to investigate the occurrence of psychiatric symptoms in adults with CP and to explore the relation between clinical and psychosocial variables. Methods and procedures: We included 199 adults with a diagnosis of CP. The chi-square and the Mann-Whitney U tests were used to compare clinical and psychosocial variables, the level of perceived disability, and the type of observed parental style in patients with and without psychiatric symptoms. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify variables that could predict the occurrence of mental health disorders. Outcome and results: Anxiety and psychosis were the most represented disorders. Age, living status, assumption of drugs, motor, manual, and global impairment were significantly different between patients with and without psychiatric symptoms. Similarly, a different parental style was observed between the two groups. Logistic regression indicated that living status, prescribed drugs, parental style, and the perceived disability in getting along with others predicted the occurrence of psychiatric symptoms. Conclusions and implications: Results suggest that patients with and without psychiatric symptoms have different clinical and psychosocial characteristics. Some variables should be considered as potentially affecting the mental health of patients with CP.
