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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesIn adolescence, anxiety disorders are the most prevalent, besides being highly comorbid, with a tendency to chronicity and persistence in adulthood; although there are different assessment measures with good psychometric properties, in Colombia there are no instruments that include the new international diagnostic classifications, aspects that may hinder accurate diagnosis and consequent care. This psychometric study aimed to adapt and validate the Anxiety Scale for Adolescents YAM-5, part I.
methodsA review of the items of the instrument was carried out, seeking to identify possible difficulties in the use of terms according to the culture; a sample of 536 adolescents linked to different public and private educational institutions from the five regions of the country was applied. The analysis of the instrument was based on the analysis of its reliability by means of Cronbach's Alpha Coefficient, the construct validity by means of the Exploratory Factor Analysis using the principal components method, and, finally, the Confirmatory Factor Analysis using the Structural Equations technique.
resultsAn internal consistency of 0.93 and a structural validity with a construct of five correlated dimensions were identified, which best fitted the data collected.
conclusionsThe structure examined provides high reliability and structural validity, highlighting benefits such as being of screening type, its low cost, and application aimed at non-clinical populations from the perspective of Colombian adolescents.
