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
Background: The current study examined the role of avoidance in behavioral activation treatment compared to a supportive counseling condition targeting depressive symptoms in a sample comprised of Latinx individuals. Method: Depressed Latinx individuals with Spanish-speaking preference (LSSP; Results: Avoidance levels decreased over the course of both treatments. However, decreases in depressive symptoms were associated with decreases in avoidance over time only for individuals who were randomized to BATD. Greater change in avoidance levels was related to post-treatment depression score, only for those who received BATD. Finally, greater avoidance prior to commencing treatment predicted lower depressive symptom change over the course of both treatments. Conclusions: This study provides preliminary evidence that avoidance may be a specific proposed mechanism of depression change in BATD among LSSP with depression. Pretreatment avoidance appears to be a useful construct to identify the trajectories of depressive symptoms over the course of psychotherapy among LSSP.
