Compulsive sexual behavior disorder: rates and clinical correlates in a community sample.
Article in Frontiers in psychiatry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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: This study sought to examine the rate of compulsive sexual behavior disorder (CSBD) in a sample of adults drawn from the community and its associated mental health correlates. Methods: An online survey of "Personality, Mental Health, and Well-Being" was distributed via Prolific to 300 adults aged 18 to 75 years. The survey measured a range of behaviors, such as sexual behavior, alcohol and drug use, and dimensional constructs of impulsivity and compulsivity using validated self-report instruments. Results: A total of 296 participants (54.7% female) completed the survey and were included in the analysis. The overall prevalence of probable compulsive sexual behavior disorder (CSBD) was 10.8% ( Conclusion: CSBD appears to be common in adults and is equally represented in males and females. CSBD appears to have obsessive, compulsive, and impulsive traits and this may have nosological importance.
