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

Objectives: To investigate the trends in hospital admissions for mental, behavioural and neurodevelopmental disorders (MBNDs) in England and Wales. Methods: This is an ecological study using the Hospital Episode Statistics database in England and the Patient Episode Database for Wales. Hospital admission data was collected for the period between April 1999 and March 2019. Results: The most common type of hospital admission was for mental and behavioural disorders due to psychoactive substance use, which accounted for 26.6%. The admission rate among males increased by 8.1% [from 479.59 (95% CI 476.90−482.27) in 1999 to 518.30 (95% CI 515.71−520.90) in 2019 per 1000 persons; p < 0.001]. The admission rate among females increased by 0.3% [from 451.45 (95% CI 448.91−453.99) in 1999 to 452.77 (95% CI 450.37−455.17) in 2019 per 1000 persons; p = 0.547]. The 15−59 years’ age group accounted for 65.1% of the entire number of such hospital admissions, followed by the 75 years and above age group, with 19.0%. Conclusion: We observed an obvious variation in MBNDs influenced by age and gender. Observational studies are needed to identify other factors associated with increased hospital admission rates related to MBNDs, specifically among the young population (aged 15−59 years) and males.
