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

Purpose: Adolescents with depressive symptoms are particularly vulnerable and at higher risk for developing co-occurring mental health issues, such as non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI). This study focused on adolescents exhibiting persistent depressive symptoms across three time points and investigated how childhood maltreatment influences NSSI and its changes over time, along with the underlying mechanisms. Methods: From a larger sample of 3981 students, 317 adolescents with persistent depressive symptoms ( Results: The univariate LCS model revealed an increasing trend in NSSI behaviors among adolescents with depressive symptoms over the measurement period. T1 childhood maltreatment indirectly influenced T2 NSSI through T2 self-esteem and T2 emotional reactivity. Additionally, T1 childhood maltreatment significantly predicted changes in NSSI through T2 emotional reactivity. Conclusions: This study underscores the importance of addressing NSSI in adolescents with depressive symptoms and highlights the necessity of screening for childhood maltreatment histories in this population. The findings provide a foundation for future prevention and intervention efforts, suggesting that enhancing self-esteem and reducing emotional reactivity could mitigate the impact of childhood maltreatment on NSSI in depressed adolescents.
