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: Antipsychotic prescribing practices in people with intellectual disabilities (ID) have sparked growing concerns about appropriateness and potential risks. The connection between living situations and antipsychotic prescribing practices in this population is a crucial but underexplored area. This study aims to investigate the association between living situation and antipsychotic prescriptions among people with ID. Methods: This retrospective chart review included 112 adults with ID who received care from 2019 to 2021. The investigation examined participants' living situations and assessed antipsychotic prescription rates, antipsychotic class, the presence of a corresponding mental health diagnoses, and polypharmacy. Statistical analyses included univariate and multivariate tests to assess the relationship between living situations and antipsychotic prescriptions, controlling for relevant covariates. Results: Univariate analysis revealed a significant association between living situation and antipsychotic prescriptions ( Conclusions: These findings highlight the complexity of antipsychotic prescribing practices among people with ID. While living situation initially appeared to influence prescription patterns, multivariate analysis suggests the importance of considering other factors. Gender and medication count emerge as significant predictors, underscoring the need for tailored interventions and closer monitoring in this population.
