Gender differences among long-stay inpatients with schizophrenia in China: A cross-sectional study.

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
Objective: We sought to examine the independent correlates of long-term hospitalization in a sample of Chinese inpatients with schizophrenia (SCZ) from a gender-based perspective. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study that was carried out in a tertiary psychiatric hospital. All adult inpatients in this hospital were screened from January to March 2020, 251 of whom were identified as long-stay inpatients with SCZ (LSIS) and 224 as short-stay inpatients with SCZ (SSIS). Demographic and clinical information of the two groups was collected through medical records, scale assessments and interviews. Gender differences were analyzed, and independent correlates of long-stay between genders were explored by logistic regression analyses. Results: Compared to SSIS, greater proportions of LSIS patients were male (64.1%), single (82.1%), unemployed (81.7%) and had no family caregivers (54.2%). For LSIS per se, proportionally more males were single (88.8%), had no family caregiver (65.8%), had concomitant physical disease (65.2%) and had a history of hazardous behavior (27.3%) than their female counterparts. For females, the top independent risk factors for a long stay included poor functioning ( Conclusions: Both clinical and nonclinical factors play important roles in long-term hospitalization in Chinese patients with schizophrenia. There are overlaps and distinctions across genders with respect to the independent factors of long stays. These findings provide clues for developing better service strategies for this population, and highlight the importance of paying attention to gender differences in further research in this field.
