Parental pattern, childhood trauma, and impulsivity contribute to the severity of crack cocaine addiction: a cluster analysis.
Article in Revista brasileira de psiquiatria (Sao Paulo, Brazil : 1999), 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
objectiveTo determine clusters (groups) of substance use in crack cocaine users through severity scores on the sixth version of the Addiction Severity Index (ASI-6) and compare the groups in relation to risk factors, such as parental style, childhood maltreatment, and impulsivity.
methodsThis cross-sectional study included 531 men with substance use disorder who were admitted to an inpatient addiction treatment unit in southern Brazil. To detect more homogeneousgroups of individuals, the K-means clustering based on ASI-6 scores was used to create groups of individuals with similar severity scores in different areas. Parenting styles were assessed using the Measure of Parental Style, childhood trauma was assessed using the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire, and impulsivity was measured using the Barratt Impulsivity Scale 11. Poisson regression was used for association analysis.
resultsTwo distinct clusters were identified, which differed significantly across all composite scores (p < 0.001). These associations were further confirmed through Poisson regression analysis. The more severe cluster showed significantly higher scores for maternal abuse (p = 0.026), sexual abuse (p = 0.003), motor impulsivity (p = 0.014), and unplanned impulsivity above the 75th percentile (p =0.032) than the less severe group. Other parenting styles, trauma types, and impulsivity did not differsignificantly between the groups.
conclusionsDividing patients into severity clusters can contribute to more targeted treatments. Further research on outpatients would reinforce the importance of early life factors and impulsivity treatment.
