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.

However, many individuals eligible for these services are not receiving them. Presently, little is known about the factors that contribute to treatment engagement. This study aimed to identify attitudes related to treatment engagement among veterans with serious mental illness enrolled at a large VA medical center. Thirty-six veterans participated in individual qualitative interviews about their beliefs about the efficacy and purpose of mental health care; their perceptions of societal attitudes regarding mental health; and their experiences accessing mental health care. Based on their level of treatment engagement in the last year, veterans were classified as either engaged in psychosocial mental health services (
