Childhood adversities and chronic conditions: examination of mediators, recall bias and age at diagnosis.
Article in International journal of public health, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 29 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectivesThe aim of this study was to (1) identify the influence of childhood socioeconomic status (CSES) on five chronic conditions: asthma, bronchitis, hypothyroid, migraine, and psychiatric disorders in later life; (2) determine the mediating role of childhood abuse (CA) in these associations, and (3) quantify recall bias due to respondent's mental health in these associations.
methods10,325 men and women from the Tromsø Study were followed for 13 years, and Poisson regression models were used.
resultsLow CSES was associated with a 16-23% higher risk of chronic conditions, and CA was associated with a 16-58% higher risk of chronic conditions (p < 0.05). A minor proportion of the association between CSES and CA (3.98%, p < 0.05); CSES and chronic conditions (5.54-8.71%, p < 0.05); and CA and chronic conditions (9.51-19.52%, p < 0.05), were driven by recall bias due to the respondent's mental health. CA mediated the association between CSES and chronic conditions (9.58-25.06%, p < 0.05).
conclusionsLow CSES and CA are associated with higher risk of chronic conditions in later life. A minor proportion of these associations are driven by recall bias.
