Longitudinal relationships between COVID-19 preventative behaviors and perceived vulnerability to disease.
Article in Journal of anxiety disorders, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Engagement in infection-preventing behaviors (e.g., mask wearing) has become crucial in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, and health-related anxiety may be an important determinant of individual compliance with recommended guidelines. However, little is known about transactional associations between health anxiety and preventative behaviors, particularly with respect to COVID-19. The present study aimed to longitudinally examine the links between preventative behaviors and both emotion-driven (Germ Aversion) and belief-based (Perceived Infectability) aspects of health anxiety during the COVID-19 pandemic. We hypothesized that greater health anxiety at Time 1 (early in the pandemic) would predict future compliance with preventative behaviors six months later. Two hundred and ninety-six adults (M/SD
