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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesPsychotic episodes in adolescents may present as affective psychosis (AP) or non-affective psychosis (NAP), which are clinically overlapping. This single-center, retrospective study aimed to describe and compare adolescents with AP and NAP regarding demographic characteristics, family history, academic functioning, and treatment patterns.

methodsWe retrospectively analyzed medical records of 171 patients aged 11-18 years admitted to the "Prof. Dr. Alexandru Obregia" Clinical Psychiatric Hospital, Bucharest, between 2020 and 2024. Descriptive statistics and univariate analyses were performed to explore associations between episode type and selected clinical and sociodemographic variables. An exploratory multivariate logistic regression was conducted to assess whether associations observed in univariate analyses remained stable after adjustment for relevant covariates. Treatment-related variables were analyzed descriptively and were not included as predictors in the regression model.

resultsAP was more frequent in females (53.2%), whereas NAP predominated in males (62.8%,

conclusionsThis retrospective study identifies descriptive differences between adolescent AP and NAP in gender distribution, family psychiatric history, academic functioning, and treatment patterns. Findings are exploratory and do not imply causality. Results highlight areas for further research and underscore the importance of considering clinical subtype and functional outcomes when planning interventions in adolescent psychosis.
