Family psychoeducation to support patients with psychotic illness: two-year outcomes from a pre-post longitudinal pilot study.
Article in Frontiers in 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
Background: Psychoeducation for families of young adults with psychosis is an evidence-based intervention that alleviates carer burden. The implementation of programming is limited, leaving family carers shouldering a heavy burden without appropriate support. Objective: This pre-post longitudinal pilot study evaluated the preliminary outcomes of a psychoeducational group intervention for family carers of young adults with psychosis, aimed at building skills and reducing carer burden to support recovery in their loved ones. Methods: The intervention, co-developed and co-facilitated by healthcare professionals and individuals with family lived experience, was delivered in Edmonton, Canada. Participants ( Results: The overall model of total burden did not reach statistical significance. Exploratory Conclusion: This pilot study provides preliminary and hypothesis-generating findings suggesting a co-produced, skills- and knowledge-based psychoeducational intervention may be associated with reductions in carer burden, particularly in the domain of family relations. Given the small sample size, further research with sufficient statistical power is warranted to evaluate the long-term impact and accessibility of the intervention and inform its integration into early psychosis care.
