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

AIMS AND

methodThere is no consensus on core curriculum content for neuropsychiatry and behavioural neurology training and the breadth of topic coverage is poorly understood. Using a scoping review, we identified 23 unique syllabuses from Australia, Argentina, Chile, Mexico, New Zealand, South Africa, the USA and the UK, and one explicitly international in scope.

resultsSyllabuses addressed a wide range of neuropsychiatric conditions, encompassing not only overlapping psychiatric and neurological disorders, but also functional, behavioural and cognitive disorders. Training integrated knowledge from neuropsychology, philosophy, ethics and social sciences. Core elements included clinical assessment, intervention skills and case management in social and institutional settings. Neuropsychiatry and behavioural neurology training integrates a broad spectrum of knowledge and skills, is aimed at a range of professionals and is delivered as both specialist training and embedded components within core training. CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: The core components of neuropsychiatry curricula identified in this study provide a foundation for institutions to develop or enhance their neuropsychiatry training programs.
