Symptoms of Attenuated Psychosis Syndrome in Relatives of Clinical High-Risk Youth: Preliminary Evidence.
Article in Schizophrenia bulletin, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
background and hypothesisAttenuated Psychosis Syndrome (APS) impacts functioning and predicts increased risk of psychosis. Risk for developing APS itself has received minimal attention. Knowledge of familial and environmental contributions to APS symptoms would advance understanding of APS and risk for psychosis. As an initial step, this report presents the first data on APS symptoms in family members of APS patients. STUDY
designThis study utilized a discordant sibling-pair family study design. The Structured Interview for Psychosis-risk Syndromes (SIPS) was administered to 17 APS probands and 26 non-APS biological siblings. Probands and siblings were compared on positive, negative, disorganized, and general SIPS symptom scales and factors derived from those scales. STUDY
resultsThere was significantly greater symptom severity in probands compared to siblings on nine of 19 SIPS scales. Negative/anxiety, functioning, and positive symptom factors were identified. Probands showed significantly greater severity than siblings on the negative/anxiety and positive factors. Elevated pathology on the negative/anxiety factor best differentiated between probands and siblings, over and above the contribution of the positive factor. No difference was found for the functioning factor.
conclusionsResults support the importance of non-familial effects on risk for APS and suggest differences in familial contribution to APS symptoms. Understanding the relative contribution of familial and environmental effects on APS symptoms may reveal important differences among APS patients, with implications for risk characterization, symptom course, and treatment selection.
