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

introductionObsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is characterized by the presence of obsessions and compulsions, which are performed in an attempt to alleviate anxiety. It is imperative to identify additional factors that may influence symptom severity and treatment efficacy. This study aims to evaluate the relationship among resilience, coping strategies, and trauma with the severity of symptoms in the Mexican population diagnosed with OCD.

methodsA prospective cross-sectional study was conducted at the National Institute of Psychiatry in Mexico City. The sample comprised 45 patients diagnosed with OCD. All participants underwent a clinical interview and completed the following instruments: the Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (Y-BOCS), the Brief Resilience Scale (BRS), the Coping Strategy Indicator (CSI), and the Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5). Spearman's rank correlation was performed to assess the relationship between the Y-BOCS scores and the scores obtained from the other scales. Furthermore, a subgroup analysis was performed based on the participants' gender.

resultsA weak negative correlation was observed between the BRS score and the severity of the Y-BOCS obsessive factor (r

conclusionThis study identified four key factors associated with the severity of OCD: resilience level, seeking social support as a coping strategy, avoidance behaviors, and trauma-related symptoms. These findings highlight additional elements that may influence patients' treatment responses, quality of life, and overall prognosis.
