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

Most individuals with mental disorders reside in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where care is often provided by family members. However, Family Interventions for psychosis (FIp) are rarely adapted for LMIC contexts. Using a validated cultural adaptation framework, we adapted Psychosis Recovery by Enabling Adult Carers at Home (Psychosis REACH) - an intervention designed for delivery outside of clinical settings - and evaluated the adapted version (Ca-REACH) among families affiliated with a mental health rehabilitation clubhouse in Lahore, Pakistan. A Fountain House clinician delivered Ca-REACH to 40 caregivers of individuals with psychosis through eight in-person group sessions. Feasibility was demonstrated across multiple process indicators: all 40 caregiver-resident dyads consented (100% recruitment), caregiver retention was high, session attendance averaged 96.5% and assessments were completed at baseline, post-intervention and 4-month follow-up. Data completeness among residents was 85%. Perceived feasibility, acceptability and appropriateness (FIM, AIM, IAM) all exceeded the benchmark score of 4.0 (
