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
Few studies provide information about the clinical correlates of economic costs in pediatric anxiety disorders. This study uses baseline data from a randomized trial involving 209 children and adolescents with clinical anxiety to examine clinical and demographic correlates of direct and indirect costs. Measured costs included the direct costs of mental health services and the indirect costs resulting from children's missed school and parents' missed work. Validated measures of anxiety and depression severity and of internalizing and externalizing behaviors were reported by youth, their parents, and independent evaluators. Seventy-two percent of youth (n = 150) had positive costs. Among these youth, the mean annual total cost was $6405 (sd = $11,674), of which $5890 represented direct cost and $4658 represented indirect cost. Higher average costs were correlated with greater child anxiety and depression severity (p < 0.001). Most pediatric anxiety disorders result in substantial individual and family costs, and costs may increase rapidly with elevated anxiety severity and depressed mood.
