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
Previous studies have reported inconsistent findings regarding paternal addiction to cigarettes, alcohol, and opium with psychological distress in youths. This study examined the association between paternal addiction to cigarettes, alcohol, and opium and the psychological distress of youths in southeast Iran. This cross-sectional study was conducted on 895 youths (aged 15-35) from the baseline phase of the Rafsanjan Youth Cohort Study (RYCS) whose fathers also participated in the Rafsanjan Cohort Study (RCS). The RYCS is a part of the RCS, a branch of prospective epidemiological research studies in Iran (PERSIAN). Smoking, alcohol consumption, and opium usage in youths and their fathers were assessed using a self-reported questionnaire. Psychological distress was assessed using the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K6 and K10). Fathers who used opium were more likely to have youth with psychological distress based on the K6 score (OR:1.37, CI:1.01-1.86) and K10 score (OR:1.34, CI: 1.01-1.80). The duration of opium consumption lower than or equal to the median was associated with increased odds of having a youth with psychological distress based on the K6 or K10 scores (OR:1.62, CI:1.14-2.31, OR:1.44, CI:1.01-2.03 respectively), but there was no significant association with duration above the median. In addition, consuming opium more than the median dosage increased the chance of having a psychologically distressed youth up to 1.47 times based on the K6 score (OR 1.47, CI 1.01-2.14) and 1.55 times based on the K10 score (OR 1.55, CI:1.08-2.22). Smoking cigarette duration lower than or equal to the median increased the chance of having a psychologically distressed youth to 1.52 times more based on the K6 score (OR 1.52, CI 1.07-2.15). There was no significant association between paternal alcohol consumption and the odds of having a psychologically distressed youth. Parental addiction to opium can lead to an increase in psychological distress in youths in the absence however of a consistent dose and duration relationship.
