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

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a condition with high patient morbidity and mortality. Research shows that eliciting patient explanations about illness causes and treatment preferences promotes cross-cultural work and engagement in health services. These topics are in the Cultural Formulation Interview (CFI), a semi-structured interview first published in DSM-5 that applies anthropological approaches within mental health services to promote person-centered care. This study focuses on the New York City site of an international multi-site study that used qualitative-quantitative mixed methods to: (1) analyze CFI transcripts with 55 adults with OCD to explore perceived illness causes and treatment preferences, and (2) explore whether past treatment experiences are related to perceptions about causes of current symptoms. The most commonly named causes were circumstantial stressors (n = 16), genetics (n = 12), personal psychological traits (n = 9), an interaction between circumstantial stressors and participants' brains (n = 6), and a non-specific brain problem (n = 6). The most common treatment preferences were psychotherapy (n = 42), anything (n = 4), nothing (n = 4), and medications (n = 2). Those with a prior medication history had twice the odds of reporting a biological cause, though this was not a statistically significant difference. Our findings suggest that providers should ask patients about illness causes and treatment preferences to guide treatment choice.
