Effect of a multidisciplinary approach on hospital visit continuation in the treatment of patients with alcohol dependence.
Article in Neuropsychopharmacology reports, 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
aimsGiven the high dropout rates from initial treatment for alcoholism among patients with alcohol dependence, it is highly essential to prevent alcohol-dependent patients from early dropout. This study aims to investigate whether a multidisciplinary approach can help achieve continuous hospital visits for this patient population for initial treatment.
methodsThis is a retrospective cohort study based on the medical records of all sequential alcohol-dependent outpatients who visited Sodegaura Satsukidai Hospital for alcoholism at least once between October 2017 and March 2019. The primary outcome was the difference in the rates of patients who achieved 6 and 12 months of continuous hospital visits following the first visit with and without the multidisciplinary approach.
resultsOf all the participants (n = 67), the female-to-male ratios for patients supported with and without the multidisciplinary approach were 6:30 and 5:26, respectively. It was found that the rate of alcoholic patients treated with the multidisciplinary approach (n = 33, 91.7%), who had continuous hospital visits, was significantly higher than that of those without (n = 12, 38.7%) (χ
conclusionA multidisciplinary approach can be used to reduce dropout from initial treatment among outpatients with alcohol dependence.
