Co-production using Theory of Change in the development of the SUCCEED Africa community-based rehabilitation intervention for people living with psychosis in West and Southeast Africa.
Article in PLOS mental health, 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
Psychosis and other severe mental health conditions cause substantial disability and reduced functioning across a number of domains. Services in low- and middle-income settings are often weak, and predominantly biomedical. Community-Based Rehabilitation (CBR) offers a comprehensive and person-centred approach that is aligned to effective case management models. The Support, Comprehensive Care and Empowerment for People with Psychosocial Disabilities (SUCCEED) programme was co-produced with people living with psychosis in four sub-Saharan countries, with a view to improving quality of life, mental health outcomes, and community participation. This paper described the intervention development process, using multiple iterations of Theory of Change (ToC), incorporating situation analysis, formative research and piloting. We present these iterations as results, using the GUIDED framework for intervention development, and the intervention is described using the TIDieR framework. We conclude that ToC can promote participatory processes of intervention co-development, as well as generate research questions. Interventions must remain flexible, and be open to revision, even if having core active ingredients.
