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

Objective: Methods: Data for this explorative analysis derive from a longitudinal study of Results: At follow-up, the inclusion of e-mental health interventions in treatment was increased to 40 % compared to baseline (28.4 %). Also, more participants reported having better knowledge and having received information about e-mental health. Gender, age, and knowledge about e-mental health interventions were significantly associated with usage patterns. In the regression analysis, gender, age, and professional group were relevant predictors of use at follow-up. Conclusion: Our results show that increasingly health care providers are including e-mental health interventions in treatment. This is presumably related to better knowledge. However, it is clear that e-mental health interventions are not yet an established component of health care. Rather, implementation efforts, particularly the dissemination of informational materials, are required to promote the use.
