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

aimsAlcohol use disorder is a complex and heterogeneous condition, necessitating various classification systems to deliver personalized and effective treatment strategies. The purpose of this study is to classify patients enrolled in an inpatient alcohol residential program based on the Lesch Alcoholism Typology (LAT).

methodA retrospective analysis was conducted on 225 consecutive admissions (n = 225) participating in an inpatient alcohol residential program at the Psychiatric Hospital of Attica. Patients were classified according to the LAT using the LAT software (lat-online.at).

resultsThe sample consisted of n = 225 participants (145 men, 64.4%), with a mean age of 49.9 years (±8.6 years). Classification results indicated that 125 subjects (55.6%) were categorized as type II, 91 (40.4%) as type III, 5 (2.2%) as type I, and 4 (1.8%) as type IV. Each subtype exhibited distinct characteristics correlated with factors such as gender, mean duration of the disorder, and a history of psychiatric hospitalization. There were no significant differences in program completion rates (χ

conclusionsImplementing the LAT from the onset of case management could enable more targeted therapeutic interventions and enhance treatment effectiveness for individuals with alcohol use disorder.
