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

purposeThe aim of this study was to examine the associations among alcohol expectancies, heavy episodic drinking (HED), and indicators of alcohol abuse and dependence in a community sample of lesbian and bisexual women.

methodsWe used adjusted logistic regression models to assess associations between alcohol expectancies and alcohol-related outcomes.

resultsDrinking expectancies were positively related to outcomes. Expectancies of "forgetting worries when depressed" were positively related to HED, whereas expectancies of increased aggression and ability to express anger were positively related to indicators of alcohol abuse and dependence. Associations did not differ by sexual identity or race/ethnicity.

conclusionThese findings suggest that alcohol expectancies are an important factor in determining risk for alcohol misuse/abuse among lesbian and bisexual women that could inform prevention, intervention, and treatment efforts.
