Early Predictors of the Childhood Dysregulation Profile: A Systematic Review.
Synthesis in Clinical child and family psychology review, 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
Childhood dysregulation profile (DP) involves difficulties in regulating emotions, behaviour and cognitions, and is associated with adverse long-term outcomes, yet its early life predictors are less well understood. This systematic review examined peer-reviewed studies published in English up to December 2024, identifying 12 eligible articles. Findings revealed that family-related factors such as parental mental health symptoms, lower education, prenatal substance use, and higher social adversity were associated with increased childhood DP symptoms, whereas evidence on parenting behaviours and home environment was inconclusive. Among child-related predictors, boys, children with difficult temperaments, and those with early regulatory problems (i.e., excessive crying, sleeping or feeding problems) were more likely to show childhood DP symptoms. On the other hand, the impacts of low birth weight, and gestational age were inconclusive. Research on the influence of language, cognitive skills and early social development remains limited. Further prospective longitudinal studies are needed to strengthen the evidence base.
