Psychiatric Resilience and Alcohol Resistance: A Twin Study of Genetic Correlation and Sex Differences.
Article in Behavior genetics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Variability in psychiatric response following stressful/traumatic life events is frequently observed. There is also variability in propensity for alcohol use disorder (AUD) such that some can consume substantial amounts and not develop AUD symptoms whereas others develop an AUD. Our group has applied discrepancy-based approaches to capture psychiatric resilience (PR) and alcohol resistance (AR), both moderately heritable. This study sought to (1) examine the genetic and environmental correlation of these constructs and (2) model qualitative and quantitative sex effects. Data came from a large twin sample (N = 4501 twin pairs) with self-report measures and interviews assessing distress symptoms, stressful life events, alcohol use, and AUD. Correlated liability model results suggested a moderate degree of genetic correlation between PR and AR (0.54) due to the same genetic factors in males and females. Findings highlight the shared genetic predisposition of these resilience/resistance constructs while emphasizing the impact of unique environmental experiences.
