Adherence to outpatient care among individuals with pre-existing psychiatric disorders following the 2024 Noto Peninsula Earthquake: A retrospective study.
Article in PCN reports : psychiatry and clinical neurosciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Aim: The study aim was to investigate the effect of the 2024 Noto Peninsula earthquake on regular psychiatric outpatient check-ups at Kanazawa Medical University Hospital, Japan. Methods: We retrospectively collected electronic medical records from January 4 to January 17, 2024, and analyzed data from 656 patients. Results: Of the 656 patients, 572 (87.2%) adhered to their scheduled visits. The failure to keep appointments was significantly associated with residence in areas with a seismic intensity of ≥6 ( Conclusion: Patients in areas with higher seismic intensity were more likely to miss appointments, probably because of factors such as infrastructure damage and personal losses. Among patients who missed appointments, those with F3 diagnoses were more likely to cite earthquake-related reasons. However, the high overall appointment adherence rate despite the effects of a major earthquake warrants further study.
