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

Objective: Intensive outpatient programs (IOPs) provide an intermediate level of care for high-risk youth and were required to rapidly pivot to telehealth services amid the COVID-19 pandemic. This article aimed to compare symptom outcomes among adolescents treated in IOPs before vs during the pandemic and during the latter period to examine outcomes among adolescents who attended in-person vs via telehealth IOPs. Method: Depressed adolescents recommended for IOPs between December 2014 and April 2022 (N = 1,152) completed validated self-reports throughout treatment. Patients treated during the pandemic completed treatment in person, via telehealth, or a combination of both. Mixed-effects models were used to examine changes in symptoms over time in treatment. Results: Compared with pre-pandemic patients (n = 828), adolescents who presented for treatment after the pandemic onset (n = 324) reported increased depression, anxiety, and nonsuicidal self-injury ( Conclusion: These findings indicate similar treatment response to both IOP treatment modalities for suicidal adolescents. Future research should discern factors leading to faster response after the pandemic onset.
