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
Introduction: Residential stability is increasingly recognized as a significant factor influencing youth positive development. While the existing body of research provides valuable insights, gaps remain regarding the determinants of residential stability and how its outcomes may vary by gender and race. This study aims to investigate the relationship between residential stability, substance use, and behavioral issues among children aged 9-10 years, with a focus on the mediating role of trauma exposure. Methods: This research utilizes data from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) study, a longitudinal project initiated in 2016 with a sample of 11,849 participants. It explores the links between residential stability, socioeconomic factors, stress, and emotional and behavioral outcomes using the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL). Structural equation modeling was employed to analyze the data. Results: Findings indicate that higher household income, living in a household with married parents, and residing in areas with greater household incomes correlate with residential stability. In turn, residential stability is linked to lower levels of life stress and reduced substance use in the future. Furthermore, the impact of residential stability on substance uses and CBCL scores was entirely mediated by trauma exposure. Conclusions: The findings advocate for the implementation of economic, social, and public policies aimed at fostering stable living environments for children and families to mitigate the emotional and behavioral challenges future generations may face. Enhancing socioeconomic status and supporting structures that promote married family living arrangements emerge as effective strategies to improve residential stability and the well-being of young people in the United States.
