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

Postpartum psychosis is a psychiatric emergency that is currently not represented in diagnostic systems, to the detriment of people with lived experience. Engaging with stakeholders offers an important avenue to improve clinical practice and make research more impactful, by providing perspectives based on first-hand, expert experience. There is a paucity of reports on stakeholders' engagement in psychiatry. Activities have thus far been limited to Western countries and there are few reports on postpartum psychosis. We report the results of public involvement activities (in the form of discussion groups) with key stakeholders in India, Malawi and the UK. These discussions centred around the clinical picture of postpartum psychosis and the terminologies used to describe these episodes. Seven major areas were highlighted: how postpartum psychosis is handled within services, common symptoms and characteristics, impact of episode, barriers to care, non-medical approaches, terminology and research areas of interest. According to the discussions, postpartum psychosis presents similarly across countries, although there are differences in access to services, approaches to mental health and terminologies used within and across countries. With this understanding comes the foundation for cross-cultural assessment, service improvement and a stakeholder-informed research agenda.
