Patient experiences with a primary care medical home tailored for people with serious mental illness.

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
introductionPeople with serious mental illness (SMI) have low rates of primary care (PC) use and die years prematurely, mostly because of medical illnesses such as cardiovascular disease or cancer. To meet the needs of these individuals, a novel, specialized patient-centered medical home with care coordination ("SMI PACT") was developed and implemented in PC. This study qualitatively examined patients' experiences with this innovative care model.
methodAfter implementation of the medical home in 2018, one-on-one semistructured interviews were conducted with 28 patients (32% women, 43% Black, and 25% Hispanic). Interviews were professionally transcribed and coded prior to thematic analysis.
resultsPatients overwhelmingly described positive experiences with SMI PACT because of the qualities of interpersonal communication displayed by SMI PACT staff (e.g., nonjudgment, good listening, patience), structural features of the SMI PACT collaborative care model (e.g., frequent follow-up communication), and other unique aspects of the SMI PACT model tailored for SMI, such as easy-to-understand language. For these reasons, most patients expressed a desire to continue care in SMI PACT. Patients also self-reported improved engagement with their healthcare and self-management of diet, exercise, blood pressure, and diabetes control as a result of SMI PACT participation. DISCUSSION: Patients enrolled in a specialized PC medical home identified clinician characteristics and behaviors that informed an overwhelmingly positive impression of the program model. Their experiences can guide dissemination of specialized PC models and integrated services for people with SMI. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved).
