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

This scoping review aims to examine the frequency and prevalence of neuropsychiatric disorders reported in patients infected with coronavirus disease 2019, and the mechanisms by which these develop during and post infection. A systematic search using relevant search terms and key words was done on six electronic databases of literature on neuropsychiatric conditions post-coronavirus disease 2019 infection from 2020 to 2023. Data were extracted following Joanna Briggs Institute guidelines, focusing on key findings, intervention details, and outcomes. We included 333 studies in the review. Studies indicated an elevated risk of neuropsychiatric disorders post-coronavirus disease 2019, with some risks remaining high 2 years after diagnosis. A significant prevalence of depressive, psychotic, and anxiety disorders, as well as post-traumatic stress symptoms were noted among coronavirus disease 2019 survivors. There was increased prevalence of insomnia and other sleep disturbances, mild to severe cognitive dysfunction, and eating disorders. Coronavirus disease 2019 infection is associated with a significant risk of developing various neuropsychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia, depressive disorders, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, and cognitive dysfunction. Long-term monitoring and early interventions are essential to mitigate these risks and improve patient outcomes.
