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

Climate change is the predominant global crisis of the 21st century and yet it appears as if not enough attention is being paid to its impact on health including mental health and wellbeing of populations globally. There is an increasing acknowledgement that eco-anxiety, solastalgia and other related conditions are emerging. However, more importantly the international impact of climate change with increasing internal and external migration places increasing strain on healthcare systems and healthcare professionals. The sheer speed of change related to climate factors started over 200 years ago but has accelerated in the past few decades and impacts human beings at multiple levels. Extreme weather events, rising temperatures, and environmental degradation contribute very strongly to both existing and newer psychiatric disorders. Recommendations are made for policymakers, researchers and clinicians about what is needed and how to deliver it.
