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

Negative or stressful life events are robust risk factors for depression and anxiety. Less attention has been paid to positive aspects of events and whether positivity buffers the impact of negative aspects of events. The present study examined positivity and negativity of interpersonal and non-interpersonal episodic life events in predicting anxiety and depressive symptoms in a sample of 373 young adults. Regressions tested main and interactive effects of positivity and negativity ratings of events in predicting symptom factors (Fears, Anhedonia-Apprehension (AA), General Distress (GD)) relevant to anxiety and depression. A significant interaction demonstrated that positivity protected against high levels of negativity of non-interpersonal events in predicting GD. A main effect of interpersonal negativity predicting higher AA was observed. Results for Fears were non-significant. Findings suggest that positivity of life events may buffer against negativity in predicting symptoms shared between anxiety and depression.
