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
backgroundBorderline personality disorder (BPD) has a high prevalence, presenting with self-injurious behaviors, suicide attempts and other psychiatric comorbidities. This condition is accompanied by high levels of stigma and self-stigma, driving to deleterious effects on prognosis. The present study aimed to compare demographic and clinical characteristics of women diagnosed with BPD with low and high internalized stigma and to address internalized stigma dimensions severity (disclosure, positive aspects, and discrimination) between the source of perceived stigma.
methodsA total of 106 women with a diagnosis of BPD were evaluated for sociodemographic data, sources of stigma, the severity of the symptomatology and internalized stigma, evaluated with the Borderline Evaluation of Severity Over Time (BEST) and the Spanish version of King's Internalized Stigma Scale (ISS), respectively.
resultsParticipants with high internalized stigma reported greater symptom severity. Regarding the reported sources of stigma, in almost all sources of stigma, discrimination was perceived as greater (p < 0.05) (friends, co-workers, doctors, psychiatrists and nurses) as well as the perceived global internalized stigma (p < 0.05) for friends, co-workers and nursing staff.
conclusionIt is necessary to address stigmatizing behaviors by health personnel and the support network close to the patient in addition to improving awareness about associated internalized stigma which is related to worse outcomes.
