The prospective association between psychological strengths and incident musculoskeletal injury in active duty Army soldiers.
Article in Health psychology open. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Extensive training, overuse, overexertion, and repetitive movements put Soldiers at increased risk for musculoskeletal injuries (MSIs). The present study investigated the prospective association between psychological strengths, physiological and social factors, and non-combat-related MSI in a sample of 24,746 active duty Army Soldiers. Over a mean follow-up period of 21.07 months (SD = 16.07), 65.42% of the Soldiers examined were treated for an MSI. Applying survival analysis techniques and adjusting for relevant physiological and social factors, we found greater baseline Optimism, Positive Affect, Coping, and Adaptability were each associated with a modest reduction in risk of MSI (4-8%). Additionally, being older, female, married, and having a higher BMI were each associated with an increased MSI risk, whereas being an officer (relative to enlisted) and obtaining post-secondary education were each associated with a decreased MSI risk. Future research should examine the mechanisms through which psychological-based interventions may impact Soldiers' risk of MSI.
