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 interparental conflict and poor parental relationship adjustment (i.e., interparental relationship discord) has been associated with children's internalizing and externalizing symptoms throughout childhood and later life. However, the degree to which interparental relationship discord is associated with clinical levels of psychopathology in adolescents remains unclear. The association between parents' report of interparental relationship discord and mental disorders in adolescents was investigated in the National Comorbidity Survey-Adolescent Supplement, a United States probability sample of 13-17-year-old adolescents and their parents (N = 4,112 dyads). A hierarchical framework, consisting of 16 specific disorders, latent dimensions of internalizing and externalizing disorders, and a latent dimension of general psychopathology, was employed. Greater interparental relationship discord demonstrated small but significant associations with higher levels of general psychopathology and internalizing and externalizing psychopathology, as well as with several specific disorders. Overall, results are consistent with the perspective that interparental relationship discord may increase risk for clinical levels of psychopathology in adolescents.
