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 compare the pathways to care of patients attending a tertiary care psychiatry hospital with those attending a hospital-based deaddiction camp. Methods: Pathways to care were compared among 155 patients with alcohol use disorders (AUDs) across two settings: a tertiary care hospital ( Results: Sixty-nine percent of patients attending the hospital-based deaddiction camp first consulted a psychiatrist, compared with only 9% of patients attending the tertiary care hospital. Consultation with religious or other indigenous service providers was low in both groups. A significant difference was observed in the decision-makers at each point of service between the two groups ( Conclusion: Patients with AUDs attending the tertiary care hospital and the deaddiction camp followed distinct pathways to care and demonstrated different treatment needs.
