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
This study analyzed drink spiking posts on Reddit, examining 91 threads and 14,284 comments to understand victim-survivor and bystander experiences. Our analysis produced four themes: contexts of drink spiking, harms experienced, immediate bystander actions, and long-term help-seeking. Drink spiking was often reported by women with male perpetrators, typically occurring in bars, private residences, or parties where alcohol was consumed and other drugs were likely administered without consent. Many victims described long-term mental health impacts and inadequate responses from emergency services. We recommend "alcohol and drug-facilitated sexual violence" as more inclusive terminology and highlight the need for interventions that validate victim-survivor experiences.
