1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Excoriation (skin-picking) disorder (SPD) is a psychiatric condition with variable clinical presentation. We developed the Diagnostic Interview for Skin Picking Problems (DISP), a semi-structured interview designed to assess (1) DSM-5 criteria for SPD and (2) several clinical features of SPD, including the frequency and duration of picking episodes, and the proportion of time devoted to picking at different body areas. The DISP was administered along with other measures to 120 college students (88% women, average age = 22 years) with suspected skin picking problems (based on their responses to a screening survey). The results showed that the DISP had good inter-rater reliability, test-retest reliability over 1-5 months, and convergent/divergent validity. We also found that participants displayed divergent clinical characteristics depending on the pattern of frequency, duration, and body location of picking episodes (e.g., those who primarily picked at the fingers had a unique clinical presentation). Overall, the findings provide preliminary support for the psychometric properties and clinical utility of DISP. The results also underscore the importance of accurately assessing frequency, duration, and body location of picking episodes.
