Psychiatric Hospitalization After Enrollment in Coordinated Specialty Care: Unexpected Gender and Age Related Disparities.
Article in medRxiv : the preprint server for health sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background and hypotheses: Hospitalization is common during first-episode psychosis (FEP) and is linked to functional decline, stigma, and healthcare burden. Coordinated Specialty Care (CSC) programs aim to reduce hospitalization and improve outcomes through early, multidisciplinary intervention. This study examined hospitalization outcomes and predictors among participants in the Academic Community Early Psychosis Intervention Network (AC-EPINET), a multisite CSC hub in the United States. Study design: Participants with FEP (N = 701; mean age = 21.6 years, 64% male) were followed after CSC admission, with analyses restricted to the first 24 months. Primary outcomes included time to first hospitalization, number of hospitalizations, and length of stay (LOS). Kaplan-Meier survival and multivariable Cox regression examined predictors of time to first hospitalization, while negative binomial regression assessed hospitalization frequency and LOS. Study results: Hospitalization rates declined after CSC enrollment. Females had shorter time to first hospitalization (HR = 2.96, 95% CI [1.24-7.10]) and more frequent admissions (IRR = 1.38, 95% CI [1.06-1.79]) than males. Younger age also predicted earlier (HR = 0.80, 95% CI [0.67-0.95]) and more frequent hospitalizations (IRR = 0.70 per 5 years, 95% CI [0.58-0.84]). Prior hospitalization predicted more admissions (IRR = 4.83, Conclusions: While CSC reduces overall hospitalization risk, females, younger individuals, and those with prior admissions remain at elevated risk. These findings underscore the need for tailored strategies to mitigate disparities and optimize early psychosis care.
