Trajectories of Alcohol-Related Problems Among First-Year Nursing Students: Nature, Predictors, and Outcomes.

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
This study aims to contribute to an improved dynamic person-centred comprehension of the distinct trajectories of alcohol-related problems observed among first-year nursing students. Data was collected from 2963 first-year nursing students on four occasions over the course of their first semester of professional training (3 months). Four main profiles best described trajectories of alcohol-related problems: High and Decreasing, Moderate and Stable, Moderate and Increasing, and Low and Stable. Our results suggested that initial (but not change in) levels of boredom, harassment, and alcohol use were primary drivers of these trajectories, reinforcing importance of early intervention. Initial levels of boredom and alcohol use were associated with a lower likelihood of membership into the Low and Stable profile relative to the other profiles. Boredom was also associated with higher initial levels of alcohol-related problems in the High and Decreasing and Low and Stable profiles, while alcohol use was associated with membership into the Moderate and Stable profile relative to High and Decreasing and Moderate and Increasing profiles, as well as with higher initial levels and fluctuations over time in alcohol-related problems in most profiles. Harassment was associated with higher initial levels of alcohol-related problems in the Moderate and Stable profile, and with fluctuations in problems in the High and Decreasing and Moderate and Stable profiles. Profiles with lower levels of alcohol-related problems tended to display lower levels of fatigue, and higher levels of perceived health and sleep quantity. Conversely, profiles with higher levels of alcohol-related problems displayed poorer health outcomes. The person-centred approach adopted in this study allows us to improve our understanding of how alcohol-related problems first unfold among first-year nursing students, as well as of the outcomes and predictors of these trajectories.
