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
backgroundThis study analysed the relationship between social support and psychological distress in Latina women in Miami-Dade County. Acculturation was examined as a modifying factor.
methodsA 2005 data set from interviews of 155 Latina mothers in Miami-Dade County, from mother-daughter dyads, was analysed. Social support was measured using the Interpersonal Support Evaluation List (ISEL) score. Psychological distress was based on self-reporting symptoms of depression, anxiety, or suicidality. Acculturation was based on English proficiency and length of U.S. residency.
resultsCompared to those with high social support, women with low social support had greater odds of reporting psychological distress (odds ratio = 7.8 [95% CI 2.70-22.10]). Acculturation did not modify the association (p=0.74).
conclusionsSocial support was inversely associated with psychological distress among Latina women. Acculturation was not an effect modifier, likely due to inadequate power. The study has clinical implications for mental illness prevention in this population.
