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

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility and effect of a psychological graded early warning and intervention system for hospitalised patients in a general hospital. Methods: The psychological screening of patients within 48 h of hospitalisation was conducted using the Union Physio-Psycho-Social Assessment Questionnaire (UPPSAQ), the Life Events Scale (LES), the Hospitalized Patients' Expectations for Treatment Scale-patient version (HOPE-P), and the Patient-Doctor-Relationship Questionnaire (PDRQ). Based on the obtained results, the warning level was divided into a recommendation level, an intervention level and a report level, after which a liaison consultation-based psychiatric intervention was administered. Patients who completed the assessments were invited for retest after 3 months. Results: A total of 1757 patients completed the psychological assessment upon admission, and 338 of them completed the follow-up psychological assessment after three months. Only 4 patients (1.2%) scored at the normal level, 199 patients (58.9%) scored at the recommendation level (grade = 1), 125 patients (37.0%) scored at the intervention level (grade = 2), and 10 patients (3.0%) scored at the report level (grade = 3). The consultation rate was 7.5% for grade 1, 19.2% for grade 2, and 70% for grade 3. After the liaison consultation intervention, the total UPPSAQ score at grades 2 and 3 significantly improved ( Conclusion: It is feasible to conduct comprehensive psychological screenings of patients hospitalised in general hospitals to implement early warning-based graded interventions. Implementing the liaison consultation intervention according to the graded early warning system can improve the psychosomatic health of patients.
