Impact of Clinical Pharmacists on Interdisciplinary Mental Health Teams in a Community Setting: A Retrospective Chart Review.
Article in The Canadian journal of hospital pharmacy, 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
Background: Clinical pharmacists play a pivotal role within collaborative care environments, with well-documented contributions on multidisciplinary teams in these settings. Their specific impacts on community mental health and substance use (MHSU) teams remains to be characterized in a publicly funded regional program within Fraser Health. Objectives: To describe the impact of medication reviews performed by clinical pharmacists and the uptake by prescribers of pharmaceutical interventions recommended by the clinical pharmacists in an ambulatory MHSU setting. Methods: This study involved a retrospective chart review of 100 patients referred to Fraser Health Community MHSU Pharmacy Services across 20 communities within the Fraser Health Authority in British Columbia. Results: Clinical pharmacists identified a total of 310 drug therapy problems (DTPs) among the 100 patients. The most common DTPs identified were adverse drug reactions ( Conclusions: In this study, embedding clinical pharmacists within community MHSU care teams enhanced medication safety and therapeutic optimization, while reducing polypharmacy. Future investigation into the benefits for long-term clinical outcomes is warranted.
