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

Moral injury is a relatively new concept with varying definitions that attempts to define a profound and lasting insult to one's conscience caused by perpetration of or directly witnessing harm to another person in a high-pressure situation. This entity is separate from posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), but it can coexist with PTSD. This article provides psychotherapeutic examples of the diagnosis of moral injury from a psychodynamic perspective, focusing on morally challenging situations related to warfare and the healthcare system.
