Communication Targets and Applications for Family Members of People With Early Psychosis and Substance Use.
Article in Early intervention in psychiatry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
aimPoor family communication can worsen early psychosis and substance use outcomes. While families find communication skills valuable, which components to offer in resource-limited settings remain unclear. This study identified communication strengths/areas of improvement, conversations families wanted to practise, and their communication happiness with their relative versus people generally.
methodFamily members (N = 36) of relatives with early psychosis and substance use participated in communication coaching. Strengths/areas of improvement and role-play content were rated from session recordings and progress notes. Self-report items assessed communication happiness.
resultsParticipants aimed to improve being brief (44%), specific and clear (39%) and offering help (36%). Role-plays focused on independence (44.1%), substance use (29.4%) and mental health treatment (17.6%). Participants reported greater communication happiness with others than with their relative (p < 0.05).
conclusionFamilies wanted to improve communication, brevity, clarity and effectively offer help, particularly to foster independence with their relative with early psychosis and substance use.
