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

Psychiatric morbidity among ICU patients at a general hospital in India is of interest. Psychiatric diagnosis was assessed using the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI), while illness severity was measured with the APACHE-II scale for 400 ICU patients. The results revealed that, 65.5% prevalence of psychiatric disorders were 2 times higher than the primary care settings 23-42.5% and the parameters like mood 28.2% and anxiety 24.5%. Disorders predominated, with 72.4% prevalence in CNS patient's vs 42.1% in others and the results also showed that, there was 82.3% morbidity in >70yr vs 36.4% in <30yr (p<0.001). These findings mandate protocolized psychiatric screening for ICU patients, particularly targeting elderly males, those with CNS/respiratory disorders and APACHE-II scores >30. The research findings had suggested that, implementing brief MINI assessments during ICU rounds could significantly improve the detection and management of comorbid mental health conditions in critical care settings.
