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

introductionPersons with severe dissociative states constitute a vulnerable group in psychiatric inpatient care and are at risk of being misunderstood and mistreated. The aim was to describe experiences of psychiatric inpatient care among persons living with severe dissociative states.

methodsSixteen persons with lived experience of severe dissociative states and previous contact with psychiatric inpatient care participated in semi-structured interviews that were analyzed using qualitative content analysis. This study is reported in accordance with the COREQ guidelines.

resultsParticipants' experiences are described in one theme, DISCUSSION: The results suggest a gap in understanding of trauma dynamics in psychiatric inpatient care, implying a need for increased trauma awareness. Mental health nurses should lead the promotion of safe, person-centred and trauma-informed psychiatric inpatient care for persons with severe dissociative states, requiring authority, education, support, supervision and resources.
