Exploring Barriers to Recovery Amongst Women with Psychosis: A Qualitative Secondary Analysis.
Article in Culture, medicine and psychiatry, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Experiencing psychosis can impact all areas of a person's life, causing significant changes to thoughts, perceptions, mood, behaviour, and sense of self. Details of the specific barriers to recovery experienced by women with psychosis and how these barriers may relate to both sex and gender remain unknown. To identify and conceptualise barriers to recovery, a qualitative secondary analysis was undertaken of 31 semi-structured interviews from a primary anthropological study focused on women's lived experiences of a first episode of psychosis. Participants were recruited from Early Intervention Services in England, UK, between 2010 and 2015. Reflexive thematic analysis demonstrated various barriers to recovery, including internal conflicts with identity, the constraining of moral agency, inadequate support to address past traumas, structural factors, and stigma. Each of these barriers intersects with both sex and gender norms in a number of ways. Barriers to recovery must be addressed within mental health services to ensure that women have the best chance of moving forward with, and finding new meaning in, their lives after psychosis. Consideration of past experiences as well as normative gender roles, and other structural barriers is needed. Future research should develop and evaluate sex- and gender-specific interventions and consider integrating these into clinical practice.
