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

Experiential avoidance is functional diagnostic dimension which refers to the unwillingness to engage with distressing thoughts, feelings, memories, and other internal experiences, despite the subsequent impairment it may cause. The spectrum of obsessive-compulsive symptoms (OCS) is often associated with anxiety and avoidant behaviors. It is still unknown the relation of each OCD dimension with experiential avoidance. This study aims to examine the relationship between dimensions of obsessive-compulsive symptoms and experiential avoidance in a college student sample. A total of 390 undergraduate students participated in this investigation, completing online surveys including DYBOC-short version and the Brief Experiential Avoidance Questionnaire (BEAQ), alongside assessments of anxiety (Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-Item Scale) and depressive symptoms (Patient Health Questionnaire-9). The findings indicated a significant correlation between experiential avoidance, obsessive-compulsive symptom scores, and depression scores within a non-clinical sample.
