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
objectiveAlcohol use is an important, but understudied, risk factor for nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI), defined as deliberate physical harm to oneself without intent to die. Alcohol use may facilitate engagement in NSSI by increasing impulsivity and physical pain tolerance. Limited data also suggest that people engage in more medically severe NSSI under the influence of alcohol.
methodThis secondary analysis study examined the use of alcohol prior to NSSI in a sample of 79 female patients with borderline personality disorder who were enrolled in a randomized clinical trial of dialectical behavior therapy. We used multilevel modeling (MLM) to examine preregistered hypotheses that alcohol use prior to NSSI would be related to the impulsivity of NSSI, physical pain experienced during NSSI, and the medical severity of injuries from NSSI.
resultsParticipants endorsed alcohol use prior to 21.96% (47/221) of NSSI episodes, and roughly one third of participants (
conclusionsFindings need to be replicated but indicate that alcohol use occurs frequently prior to NSSI and could be a target for reducing impulsive episodes of NSSI. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved).
