1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Childhood maltreatment increases the risk of adverse outcomes in various areas, such as somatic and mental health. This may also lead to poorer academic achievement, but few studies have been conducted among children in primary school. The study aimed to investigate school functioning in a sample of Norwegian children subjected to maltreatment and the association with multivictimization (i.e., exposure to three or more types of maltreatment). Parent-reported data on behalf of 192 children (ages 6-12 years) were collected from the Stine Sofie Center, a support and coping center for children exposed to maltreatment. School functioning was assessed through parent-reported school performance, special education status, and school absences. In total, 15.6% of the children were reported to perform very poorly in at least one subject. Approximately one-fourth (27.1%) received special education, and 10.0% had been absent from school for at least 8 days in the last month. Multivictimization was associated with an increased likelihood of poorer school performance (
