The role of metacognition and social cognition in childhood trauma effecting on prognosis: 1-year follow-up study in patients with first-episode schizophrenia.

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
backgroundChildhood trauma (CT) is common in first episode schizophrenia (FES), affecting prognosis and functionality. However, the mechanisms by which CT effects prognosis are not clear. This study aimed to investigate how metacognition (MC) and social cognition (SC) mediate effects of CT on symptoms in FEP.
methods52 first episode schizophrenia patients who were diagnosed for first time and had been symptomatic for at most 2 years were included. Patients were administered Metacognition Assessment Scale-Abbreviated to assess MC; Reading the Mind in the Eyes Test, Facial Emotion Recognition and Discrimination Tests to assess SC; Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale to assess psychopathology and Global Assessment of Functioning Scale to assess functionality at first interview. Patients were followed up for 1 year. At second interview the above scales and Childhood Trauma Questionnaire-33 were applied to 38 patients who met remission criteria.
resultsMC and SC modulated effects of CT on negative symptoms, but not on positive symptoms. CT had different effects on symptoms, MC and SC skills in episode and remission. Pharmacological treatment was not sufficient to improve these skills.
conclusionsMC and SC skills are important in modulating CT effecting on prognosis and non-pharmacological interventions should be developed to improve these skills. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
