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
Introduction: Psychiatric home care provides a wide range of multidisciplinary, user-centered, high-intensity psychiatric interventions to manage mental health crises. Previous studies have found high satisfaction with care, but only assessed user and nurse perspectives. This study aimed to understand the experience of a psychiatric home hospitalization program in Spain from the perspective of all involved (users, families and healthcare professionals). Materials and methods: A qualitative study with a phenomenological approach was conducted to assess "Crisis Resolution and Home Treatment" (CRHT), a psychiatric home care program. Semi-structured individual and group interviews were held between 2021 and 2022. The final sample size was determined by saturation and data were analyzed thematically. Analyses were performed by a multidisciplinary team and externally reviewed by a mental health user and an experienced CRHT manager. Results: Four main themes summarizing CRHT experiences emerged: (1) Organizing and operating CRHT programs; (2) Receiving care at home; (3) Caregiver and family involvement and (4) Consequences of the home-based care model. CRHT allows individualized and contextualized treatment. Users and families valued home care and felt safe, although unprepared for the post-discharge situation, especially as care intensity decreases. While home care strengthens family bonds, some caregivers may need additional support to manage a crisis. Along with personalized care, CRHT allows for the development of a comprehensive lifelong treatment plan, although the care burden (for oneself and others) must be considered. Conclusion: CRHT was rated positively as a flexible intervention, facilitating person-centered care and strengthening trust between users, their families, and the CRHT team. It offers personalized treatment and connects individuals to further support, enabling better treatment experiences and strengthening family relationships.
