Adverse childhood experiences, recent negative life events, and non-suicidal self-injury among Chinese college students: the protective role of self-efficacy.
Article in Child and adolescent psychiatry and mental health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
backgroundNon-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) is a severe health problem closely related to adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). However, the underlying mechanisms by which ACEs may affect NSSI are largely unknown. Self-efficacy (NSSI-SE) and recent negative life events (RNLEs) may play important roles in this relationship. This study aimed to clarify the relationship between ACEs and NSSI among college students by examining the role of self-efficacy (NSSI-SE) and RNLEs in this process.
methodRelevant self-report questionnaires were used to evaluate ACEs, RNLEs, NSSI-SE, and NSSI. A questionnaire of 1036 Chinese undergraduates (M
resultsNSSI was associated with both ACEs and RNLEs. ACEs and RNLEs could directly increase the risks of participating in NSSI, and the effects of ACEs and RNLEs on NSSI were independent without an interactive effect. NSSI-SE buffered the relationship between ACEs and NSSI, as well as between RNLEs and NSSI. Compared to individuals with a low level of NSSI-SE, ACEs and RNLEs were not significantly associated with NSSI in persons with a high level of NSSI-SE.
conclusionNSSI-SE may buffer the effect of ACEs and RNLEs on NSSI, indicating that future interventions can be enhanced by targeting NSSI-SE among college students with ACEs or RNLEs to prevent their engagement in NSSI.
