Multidimensional profiles of adolescent social-ecological risk and protective factors and young adult sexual behavior.
Article in Developmental psychology, 2025. 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
Research has demonstrated that social-ecological risk and protective factors at multiple levels are associated with sexual behavior in adolescence. However, relatively little is known about how different patterns of these factors may work together in combination to influence sexual risk. In this study, we use nationally representative data from the U.S. National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health to (a) uncover latent classes of adolescent social-ecological risk and protective factors, (b) examine how membership in these classes differs by demographic characteristics, and (c) examine how these classes are associated with concurrent adolescent and later young adult sexual behavior. We selected a model with seven latent classes: protected, no romantic relationship (25%), permissive peer norms (16%), poverty/single-parent home (16%), peer disconnection (16%), protected, in romantic relationship (10%), multidimensional risks (9%), and family and community disconnection (8%). In general, participants in the permissive peer norms and multidimensional risks classes were most likely to engage in sexual risk behaviors; and those in the protected, no romantic relationship, and peer disconnection classes were least likely. Findings suggest a combined impact of multiple risk factors on both adolescent and young adult sexual behaviors as well as the unique role of peer risk.
