Changing the Game? Increasing the Impact of Peer-Run Organizations.
Article in Community mental health journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Employment and deployment of peer support specialists in both clinical and non-clinical mental health settings has increased substantially since the 1990's. Peer-run organizations are defined as those led and managed by individuals with self-disclosed lived experience of mental health conditions. Many peer-run organizations promoting advocacy and offering services have been established during the past 30 years. Some adherents assert the effectiveness of peer-run organizations over hybrid mental health service providers in which peer support workers are integrated or partnered with existing community mental health agency multidisciplinary clinical and treatment teams. Although research has indicated the positive contributions of peer-run organizations to service user recovery, the impact of peer-run organizations on system transformation is not well documented. This concept paper explores benefits, accomplishments, and challenges faced by a peer-run organization during its 30-year evolution in offering self-help groups, supported housing, peer support services, peer specialist training, and systems change projects in Los Angeles County, California. Future research topics and policy options are suggested, along with recommendations for the SAMHSA Office of Recovery.
