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
Limited attention has focused on sibling relationships following disclosure of childhood sexual abuse. This study sought to investigate changes, if any, in sibling relationships before, immediately following disclosure, and at the present time, from the perspective of non-abused adult siblings. A cross-sectional survey design was used to measure the extent of closeness, explore changes in relationships, and whether closeness varied according to other factors such as age, gender, birth order, or favoritism by parents. Analysis of 99 participant responses indicated that participants felt more close to their siblings following disclosure. Further analysis indicated that while participants felt more positive feelings toward their abused sibling when the abuser was intrafamilial, they felt less close to them than when the abuser was extrafamilial. The findings highlight the complexity of relational dynamics and emotional responses (e.g., ambivalence) in family relationships in general, and sibling relationships in particular, as family members manage the fallout of child sexual abuse. More research is needed to explore the impact of sexual abuse on this important family relationship.
