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

introductionThe benefits of theatre and arts-based initiatives for enhancing the health and wellbeing of adults, regardless of mental health status, are well-documented. Theatre methodologies offer a platform for co-produced experiential learning, promoting perspective-taking and effective communication among staff and service users. This project aimed to bring together service users and mental health professionals through workshops conducted by an experiential theatre company, focusing on themes such as relationship dynamics, co-production, empowerment and perspective-taking. Notably, the sessions were conducted online due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

methodsThe study sought to explore the experiences, learning outcomes and work-related wellbeing benefits of participating in this innovative project. Methods involved inviting East London Foundation Trust members to eight weekly online workshops, culminating in a co-created filmed performance. Interviews conducted 9 months to a year later with participants and facilitators were thematically analysed.

resultsResults revealed four key themes: (1) personal and collective growth through storytelling and embodied acting experiences; (2) the importance of workshop structure for experiential learning; (3) challenging traditional role definitions through diminished hierarchy; and (4) sustained impacts on time management at work and in personal lives.

conclusionsIn conclusion, participants valued their involvement, indicating that theatre-based co-produced learning enhances communication and interpersonal skills in mental healthcare settings. These findings suggest the potential for integrating such approaches into healthcare education and training programs.
