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
objectivesThis nationwide longitudinal study investigates the impact of neighbourhood deprivation on psychological well-being of Canadian adults.
methodsUtilizing data from the Longitudinal and International Study of Adults (LISA) spanning 2016, 2018, and 2020, we included individuals aged 15 and above across Canada. The 2016 and 2020 samples comprised approximately 17,700 and 12,700 respondents, respectively. LISA data were paired to Neighbourhood Material and Social Deprivation data derived from Canada's 2016 Census. Psychological distress was assessed using the Kessler Scale (K-10), both dimensionally (score) and categorically (above the cut-point prevalence). Multi-level mixed-effects regressions were conducted, adjusting for individual-level variables.
resultsAt baseline, participants' mean age was 47.7 years (50.6% female), and higher social and material deprivation were associated with greater psychological distress. Longitudinally, psychological distress showed distinct temporal patterns based on the type of deprivation. Adjusted models revealed that residing in the most socially deprived neighbourhoods was linked to a greater increase in psychological distress scores over time as compared with the least socially deprived areas. Conversely, the highest degree of material deprivation showed a negative association with increasing distress, contrasting with the lowest material deprivation. A similar trend emerged regarding the prevalence of high psychological distress: in the most socially deprived neighbourhoods, there was an elevated prevalence over time, whereas the highest material deprivation was negatively associated with increasing prevalence.
conclusionThis study supports the link between mental health and neighbourhood social deprivation, but differs from previous research regarding material deprivation. While material support remains crucial for disadvantaged communities, public health interventions should also address social deprivation.
