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.

Abstract

backgroundCoordinated specialty care (CSC) models for first episode psychosis include evidence-informed family education and support as a core component of care. Evidence suggests low rates of family engagement in many CSC programs. To address this gap, the FAMily Motivational Engagement Strategy (FAMES), a culturally responsive intervention, was previously developed, pilot-tested, and found to positively impact family engagement in CSC. The goals of this Hybrid Type 2 Effectiveness-Implementation study are to investigate whether FAMES improves family engagement in CSC, assess activation of target mechanisms, and evaluate a Culturally Responsive Approach to Targeting Equity (CURATE) implementation package used to support the integration of FAMES in CSC.

methodsA stepped-wedge trial will be conducted with nine CSC sites, each randomized to one of three waves. CSC sites will initially recruit participant dyads into an attention control condition (n = 225) followed by a separate cohort of dyads who will receive FAMES (n = 225). Primary (engagement) and secondary (perceived stress, anxiety) outcomes, as well as mechanisms (self-efficacy, connectedness, motivation) among family members will be assessed. Secondary outcomes will also include client-level outcomes such as symptoms and engagement. Guided by the Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, Maintenance/Sustainability extension framework for sustainability, implementation outcomes (reach, adoption, implementation, sustainability) will be evaluated using mixed methods. DISCUSSION: This study represents one of the first studies to test the effectiveness of a culturally responsive family engagement intervention in CSC settings, where service utilization disparities among families are present. Findings from this study have the potential to improve the impact of CSC for families and advance understanding of equity-focused implementation approaches to facilitate the provision of culturally responsive care in mental health settings.
