Factors Associated With Length of Hospital Stay for Forensic Psychiatric Inpatients With Intellectual Disabilities.
Article in Journal of applied research in intellectual disabilities : JARID, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionThe aim of this study was to examine factors associated with length of stay within a psychiatric hospital for patients with intellectual disabilities who have a forensic history.
methodsData about 111 patients were gathered retrospectively from historical records for the period of February 2011 to March 2021. Negative binomial regression was then used to examine the relationship between selected predictor variables and length of stay.
resultsPatients who were older upon admission and those who had received psychological therapies or positive behavioural support (PBS) had a significantly longer length of stay. Those with a diagnosis of a neurodevelopmental disorder had a significantly shorter length of stay. All other predictors were not statistically significant.
conclusionsThere was evidence of a clinical improvement at discharge and those with autism or ADHD had a shorter length of stay. Similar studies with larger sample sizes should be completed across England.
