1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Exposure to direct and intergenerational adversity can negatively affect the mental health (e.g., depressive symptoms) of adolescents. Black adolescents are at particularly heightened risk for experiencing adversity due to systematic exposure to racism-related stress and discrimination; yet most Black youth do not develop mental health problems. Given this context, the current study explored social-ecological protective factors (e.g., internal assets, mother-adolescent communication, community cohesion) that Black adolescents may access to mitigate depressive symptoms. The sample included 141 Black adolescents and their mothers. Adolescents ranged in age from 11 to 17 (M
