Time, Age, and Predictors of Psychosocial Outcome in Borderline Personality Disorder.
Article in Journal of personality disorders, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
In longitudinal studies, BPD symptoms diminish over time, though psychosocial functioning lags far behind. The effects of time and advancing age on BPD are poorly understood. We sought prospective predictors of psychosocial outcome and recovery in 150 BPD subjects followed 2 to 31 years (mean 9.94 years) using a multidimensional assessment method and biannual follow-ups. Time-in-study had no significant effect on achieving diagnostic remission in BPD, good psychosocial outcomes, meaningful interpersonal relationships, full employment, or total recovery; however, younger age was associated with social and vocational achievement independent of BPD remission. Significant contributions to psychosocial outcome were found for age, employment status, MDD, SUD, Any Anxiety Disorder, and Alcohol abuse/dependence (ALC). Remission from BPD was neither necessary or sufficient for good interpersonal relationships or full-time employment. Full-time employment and social and vocational adjustment (SAS-sr) predicted good psychosocial outcome. Axis I comorbidity with Any Anxiety Disorder, MDD, or SUD predicted poor outcome.
