Longitudinal association of homonegative school climate with body dysmorphic disorder among cisgender sexual minority adolescents: Testing mediation through proximal minority stressors.
Article in Body image, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
In a US national cohort study of cisgender sexual minority adolescents (SMAs), we prospectively (1) assessed whether within-person changes in homonegative school climate (i.e., school contextual factors that lead SMAs to feel unsafe or threatened) were associated with risk of probable body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) and (2) tested whether internalized homonegativity and negative expectancies mediated this association. Data came from consecutive time points (18-month, 24-month, 30-month) of the Adolescent Stress Experiences over Time Study (ASETS; N = 758). The Body Dysmorphic Disorder Questionnaire measured probable BDD. Sexual Minority Adolescent Stress Inventory subscales measured past 30-day minority stress experiences. Multilevel models were specified with person mean-centered predictor variables to capture within-person effects. Across one year of follow-up, 26.86% screened positive for probable BDD at least once. Model results indicated significant total (risk ratio [RR]=1.43, 95% credible interval [CI]=1.35-1.52) and direct effects (RR=1.18, 95% CI=1.05-1.34) of homonegative school climate. Internalized homonegativity was independently associated with probable BDD (RR=1.28, 95% CI=1.12-1.46) and mediated 49.7% (95% CI=12.4-82.0) of the total effect. There was limited evidence of mediation via negative expectancies. Implementing SMA-protective school policies and targeting internalized homonegativity in clinical practice may reduce the prevalence and incidence of probable BDD among cisgender SMAs.
