Prevalence and Clinical Correlates of Autistic Features in Patients with Initial-Treatment and Drug-Naive Schizophrenia.
Article in Alpha psychiatry, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Objective: A distinct subtype of schizophrenia (SCZ) is the one accompanied with autistic features (AF). This study aimed to determine the prevalence of AF in initial-treatment and drug-naive (ITDN) patients with SCZ and investigate its influencing factors. Methods: The study recruited 710 ITDN patients with SCZ. Their sociodemographic data and general clinical information were collected, and a clinical psychological assessment was performed to quantify their psychopathology and disease severity. The severity of AF was calculated based on psychopathology scores. Results: Overall, 19.01% (135/710) patients with SCZ showed AF. Patients with AF exhibited higher levels of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) ( Conclusion: This study reports the prevalence of AF in the target SCZ population and identifies factors associated with its development and severity. The discernment of these distinctive clinical features may facilitate formulation of tailored prevention strategies and interventions for this precise subset of SCZ patients.
