Article in Community mental health journal, 2025. 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
Individuals with significant mental health problems (SMHP) have historically faced challenges accessing mental health care due to gaps between primary and secondary care services. The National Health Service (NHS) Long Term Plan aims to bridge this gap through the introduction of integrated primary care services that provide holistic, person-centred, multidisciplinary support for people with SMHP. This evaluation aimed to explore the experience of service users, carers and staff working within this new model of care. A qualitative approach was employed, and semi-structured interviews were conducted with N = 123 participants (n = 106 staff, n = 15 service users, n = 2 carers). Thematic analysis identified three themes: 'opening doors and improving experiences', 'tailored and timely care' and 'connected communities'. Findings showed that the Integrated Primary Care Mental Health Service enabled earlier and easier access to mental health support for people with SMHP and supported community engagement and cross-collaboration between the NHS and partner agencies. The findings underscore the value of the Integrated Service in providing accessible, comprehensive, and person-centred mental health support at a primary care level, highlighting the benefits of cross-partnership working.
