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

This study investigated the clustering of psychosocial adversities and their synergistic effect with depression on suicidality in a 12-month prospective cohort (N = 214) of YMSM living with HIV in Bangkok, Thailand. Latent class analysis identified subgroups with distinct combinations of adversities, including bullying, intimate partner violence, substance use, HIV stigma, low social support, histories of sex work, and below-income status. Significant interactive synergism were found as hypothesized, supporting a syndemic effect with qualitatively increasing levels of adversities on suicidality (score range: 3-17) over the 12 months. The interaction between moderate adversity clustering and depression (β
