Reconsidering the discontinuation of M.Phil. programs in clinical psychology and psychiatric social work: An imperative for India's mental health future.
Article in Indian journal of psychiatry, 2024. 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
This viewpoint critically examines the New Education Policy (NEP) 2020's decision to discontinue M.Phil. programs in Clinical Psychology and Psychiatric Social Work in India. It explores the crucial roles these programs play in addressing the country's shortage of mental health professionals and evaluates the potential impact of this decision on mental healthcare. The article advocates for the necessity of these programs in maintaining the quality and accessibility of mental health services and calls for a reconsidered policy approach that balances educational reforms with the specialized needs of the mental health sector.
