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

Social anxiety (SA) and depressive symptoms frequently coexist, with the onset of SA typically preceding the onset of depression. Individuals experiencing SA-depression comorbidity exhibit increased functional impairments as compared to individuals without this comorbidity. Understanding the mechanisms that underlie the coexistence of SA and depressive symptoms can deepen our theoretical understanding regarding these conditions and contribute to depression prevention efforts. Recent theories suggest that low cognitive flexibility (CF) contributes to the development of depression and may play a role in the relationship between the disorders. However, empirical prospective findings are sparse. We examined whether CF moderates the link between SA and depressive symptoms in two independent preregistered studies: cross-sectional (
