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

Individuals with severe mental illness and their caregivers face multifaceted barriers to accessing mental health care in rural India. Semi-structured interviews with 20 participants revealed key impediments including travel distance, financial burden, limited service availability, stigma, reliance on traditional healers and poor illness insight. Thus, we show the need for culturally tailored, community-based and telepsychiatry solutions. Strengthening primary care through integration and caregiver support may enhance access and engagement.
