Psychiatric emergency events and risk factors among patients with severe mental disorders: an 8-year retrospective analysis in an urban district of Beijing.

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
Objective: To investigate the characteristics and associated factors of psychiatric emergencies among patients with severe mental disorders using 8-year consecutive data from an urban district of Beijing, so as to inform evidence-based strategies for preventing and responding to such events in community mental health settings. Methods: A 1:1 age- and gender-matched case-control study was conducted. We included 349 patients who received emergency psychiatric interventions between 2018 and 2025 (case group) and 349 matched controls with no history of such events during the same period. Results: Within the case group, most participants were young-to-middle-aged males diagnosed with schizophrenia. The leading indications for intervention were risk of harm to others/public safety (36.10%) and aggressive behaviors (26.07%). Multivariable regression identified seven independent risk factors, while regular community rehabilitation was a protective factor (all Conclusion: Males, young and middle-aged adults, and schizophrenia patients are key populations for community psychiatric emergency management. These events result from combined sociodemographic, clinical, familial, and community factors. Targeted interventions can effectively reduce emergency rates, providing scientific evidence for community mental health practice.
