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

aimThis article explores experiential knowledge of living with paediatric acute-onset neuropsychiatric syndrome (PANS), and the factors that are associated with perceived good care.

methodsTen people with lived experience of PANS participated, five women and five men aged 19-34. Semi-structured interviews were used to explore their experience of living with PANS and their encounters with healthcare. Thematic analysis was carried out to identify central themes in the transcribed interviews.

resultsThe study revealed a group of young adults living fairly isolated lives, dependent on care from relatives. To them, the illness was a tangible presence. They perceived a lack of knowledge among healthcare staff on PANS in healthcare, and negative consequences linked to this. In addition, their experience-based knowledge of their own illness is devalued in healthcare encounters. A feeling of being pushed around in healthcare, without anyone taking responsibility for the treatment, emerged in the interviews. The participants emphasized the need for increased knowledge among staff to identify PANS and be able to offer effective treatment.

conclusionThere is a need to increase the knowledge about PANS in healthcare and to coordinating care between neurology, immunology and psychiatry. To be able to offer evidence-based care to children with PANS, in-depth knowledge is needed about aetiology, treatment effects, and user experiences and preferences.
