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

backgroundIn Germany, there are hardly any studies that investigated the care pathways in the early course of psychosis and the duration of untreated psychosis (DUP) and took the migration background into account.

objectiveThe study examined whether young adults with (PwM) and without a migration background (PoM) who had a first psychotic episode or first contact with the psychiatric care system within the last 5 years differ in their utilization of care services and DUP. MATERIAL AND

methodsThe data collection and post hoc analyses were carried out as a part of a cohort study (84 inpatients) at the Early Intervention and Therapy Center (FRITZ) in Berlin.

resultsThe number of PwM (n = 38) who experienced a first psychotic episode did not significantly differ from the comparison group (PoM, n = 46) in the utilization of healthcare services (p = 0.22). Neither the time until seeking help from the first service nor the number of contacts with healthcare services and DUP significantly differed between PwM and Pom. The PwM were predominantly young adults with a good education background who grew up in Germany. DISCUSSION: Users sought help at FRITZ relatively quickly, independent of their migration background, which supports further implementation of specialized early detection and intervention services in Germany. The results could be attributed to the selection of the study population.

conclusionFurther studies are needed that address people with lower education and low language skills. The early detection programs and awareness campaigns should be adapted to this target group.
