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
introductionPatients in emergency departments (EDs) constitute a diverse population with multiple health-related risk factors, many of which are associated with intimate partner violence (IPV). This paper examines the interaction effect of depression, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), impulsivity, drug use, adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), at-risk drinking, and having a hazardous drinker partner with gender on mutual physical IPV in an urban ED sample.
methodsResearch assistants surveyed 1037 married, cohabiting, or partnered patients in face-to-face interviews (87% response rate) regarding IPV exposure, alcohol and drug use, psychological distress, ACEs, and other sociodemographic features. IPV was measured with the Revised Conflict Tactics Scale. Interaction effects were examined in multinomial and logistic models.
resultsResults showed a significant interaction of gender and PTSD (odds ratio [OR] 3.06, 95% CI 1.21-7.23, p < 0.05) for mutual IPV. Regarding main effects, there were also statistically significant positive associations between mutual physical IPV and at-risk drinking (OR 1.73, 95% CI 1.07-2.77, p < 0.05), having a hazardous drinker partner (OR 2.19, 95% CI 1.35-3.55, p < 0.01), illicit drug use (OR 2.09, 95% CI 1.18-3.71, p < 0.01), ACEs (OR 1.23, 95% CI 1.06-1.42, p < 0.01), days of cannabis use past in the 12 months (OR 1.003, 95% CI 1.002-1.005, p < 0.001), and impulsivity (OR 2.04, 95% CI 1.29-3.22, p < 0.01).
conclusionsIPV risk assessment in EDs will be more effective if implemented with attention to patients' gender and the presence of various and diverse other risk factors, especially PTSD.
