Characteristics of quality improvement interventions to improve physical healthcare in mental health settings: a scoping review protocol.
Article in BMJ open, 2024. 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
introductionMental health concerns globally impact millions of people, resulting in significant financial impact and adverse health outcomes. People living with mental health concerns are at higher risk of developing physical health issues, which can lead to a shortened life expectancy. Barriers to physical healthcare, such as limited service capacity, low help seeking and stigma, contribute to health disadvantage. Quality improvement (QI) interventions can address these challenges by addressing staff-level and service-level factors to improve the focus on physical healthcare in mental health settings. The aim of this scoping review is to describe studies of QI interventions to improve physical healthcare in mental health settings. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: The proposed scoping review will be conducted in accordance with guidance for scoping reviews from the Joanna Briggs Institute Manual and in line with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews. A systematic review search for peer-reviewed and published articles will be conducted across eight databases: PubMed, MEDLINE (Ovid), Web of Science, CINAHL (EBSCOhost), ProQuest Central, PsycINFO (Ovid), Scopus and Embase (Elsevier). Two independent reviewers will screen the titles, abstracts and full text using Covidence. Any disagreement will be resolved through discussion or with a third reviewer. Data collection will be facilitated using Microsoft Excel. The details of included studies will be extracted by two authors independently. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: No ethical approval is required for the scoping review. The results of this review will be presented at conferences and published in a peer-reviewed scientific journal. This review will also inform the development of a QI strategy to influence mental health staff practices in the provision of physical healthcare in Australian mental health settings.
