Mental healthcare for adults with mild intellectual disabilities: population-based database study in Dutch mental health services.
Article in BJPsych open, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
backgroundAdults with mild intellectual disability (MID) experience more mental health disorders than the general population. However, mental healthcare may be insufficiently tailored to match their needs. Detailed information is lacking regarding care provided to people with MID in mental health services.
aimsTo compare mental health disorders and care provided to patients with and without MID in Dutch mental health services, including patients with missing MID status in the service files.
methodIn this population-based database study, we used a Statistics Netherlands mental health service database, containing health insurance claims of patients who utilised advanced mental health services in 2015-2017. Patients with MID were identified by linking this database with Statistic Netherlands' social services and long-term care databases.
resultsWe identified 7596 patients with MID, of whom 60.6% had no intellectual disability registration in the service files. Compared with patients without intellectual disability (
conclusionsPatients with MID in mental health services have different profiles of mental health disorders and care than patients without intellectual disability. In particular, fewer diagnostics and treatments are provided, especially in those with MID with no intellectual disability registration, putting patients with MID at risk of undertreatment and poorer mental health outcomes.
