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
People who experience mental ill-health are typically more disadvantaged across a range of social and economic domains compared with the general population. This disadvantage is further heightened for people from marginalised communities. Social and economic adversities can limit both the access to, and effectiveness of, interventions for mental ill-health; however, these challenges are often overlooked by mental health services. Therefore, adequate support for social needs is urgently required, particularly for those from marginalised and vulnerable groups. We conducted a PRISMA-compliant systematic review of three academic databases to identify social and/or economic interventions which were adapted or developed bespoke for people from marginalised or minoritised communities living with mental ill-health. All records were screened blind by two reviewers; quality appraisal was conducted with the Kmet tool. Seventy-eight papers were included, deriving mostly from high-income countries. The identified interventions targeted nine sociodemographic or socioeconomic groups including: people experiencing homelessness or unstable housing (
