The Interplay of Pathological Gambling, Substance Abuse, and Financial Ruin: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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
Gambling, which was previously restricted to physical casinos and card rooms, has become readily accessible through internet platforms and virtual card games as a result of recently developed technological advances. The increase in the prevalence of pathological gambling (PG) disorder has been attributed to the extensive availability of online gambling platforms and the covert advertising that is associated with them. In this case, we examine an individual with a PG disorder who is intrigued by online gambling. This individual also has a co-occurring drug use disorder and is burdened by significant financial debt and family problems. These issues have arisen due to an uncontrollable impulse to gamble in online games. The participants initially achieved transient success in these online games, which led to a strong desire to always participate in them, neglecting their personal and professional responsibilities and overall well-being. After depleting the individual's financial savings entirely, he turned to stealing from his own home in order to continue gambling and recover their losses. This has been facilitated by the ease and convenience of online money transactions through websites and mobile applications, which has resulted in a greater engagement and understanding of online gambling.
