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
The psychotherapy Directive was reformed in 2017. The aim is to analyse the impact of the reform on treatment pathways.A pre-post comparison was conducted using statutory health insurance claims data. Patients with a first diagnosis of depression in Q1 2016 (pre-period) or Q1 2018 (post-period) were included. The observation period was one year.149,941 (pre-period) and 134,832 (post-period) patients were included. In the post-period, more services are used up to the start of directive-therapy than in the pre-period. The interval between first contact and first therapy service has increased by 16.9 days in the post-period.The time interval until the start of therapy has increased, but more psychotherapeutic services are being used. The reform means that more treatment pathways are available and that these have become more diversified.
