Association between History of Concussion and Substance Use Is Mediated by Mood Disorders.
Article in Journal of neurotrauma, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
Understanding the impact of concussion history on mental health-mood disorders and substance use-is an essential step in characterizing the psychological and behavioral consequences of concussion and in developing effective treatments. The objective of this study was to examine the association between the history of concussion and substance abuse by investigating both its direct and indirect association via mood disorder. A secondary objective was to determine whether gender moderates the association. A comprehensive survey was administered to 4849 college-age adults that assessed history of concussion; depression, anxiety, and panic disorders using the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ); and substance use using the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test
