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
The present study sought to identify if there is distinct mental health symptomology among child welfare-involved youth depending on the category of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) endorsed. A chart review of child welfare-involved youth (N = 129, ages 8-16) and caregiver reported ACEs and mental health/trauma symptoms was conducted. A K-means cluster analysis used ACE scores to identify groups of youth along two dimensions: household dysfunction and child abuse/neglect. The first cluster identified had low ACE scores outside of their system involvement (n = 62), the second predominantly endorsed household dysfunctions (n = 37), and the third predominantly endorsed abuse/neglect (n = 30). One-way analysis of variance tests revealed that youth in the systems-only cluster differed from youth in the other groups, while the two high ACE category groups did not differ from each other on mental health/trauma symptoms. These results have important implications for the screening and treatment referral processes in the child welfare system.
