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: Latin America is experiencing unprecedented migration, with millions, including many political refugees, moving within and across the region. This mass migration carries significant mental health implications due to multi-level stressors, including migration-related stigma. Main Text: Migration Stigma, in which migrants are labeled as dangerous, criminal, or "other," drives discrimination and creates structural barriers to mental healthcare, particularly for people with psychosis. This stigma intensifies with intersectionality-factors like ethnicity, gender, or socioeconomic status contribute to greater delays and risk. Although research on migration and psychosis exists-Latin America remains understudied. Population-based registries like Chile's national registries and Brazil's 100 Million Cohort offer tools to quantify inequities, identify intervention points, and evaluate policies. Such data can illuminate how stigma and systemic barriers affect care for migrants with psychosis. Conclusion: Integrating registry-based data with anti-stigma strategies and inclusive health policies is critical to ensuring equitable early psychosis care for Latin American migrants.
