Disrupting the path to craving: Acting without awareness mediates the link between negative affect and craving.
Trial report in Psychology of addictive behaviors : journal of the Society of Psychologists in Addictive Behaviors, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Low treatment utilization, relapse, and chronicity are characteristic of substance use disorders (SUDs). Craving is an important predictor of relapse. Individuals with an SUD report using various coping strategies in response to negative affect, two of which are investigated in the current study: suppression and acting with awareness. Suppression is typically understood to be avoidance of unwanted experience through turning attention away from unwanted stimuli. Acting with awareness (AWA) is a facet of mindfulness, which includes turning toward experience with kindness and curiosity, even when the experience is unwanted. Evidence suggests mindfulness may reduce craving, while suppression has been associated with increased craving. In the current study, participants (
