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: Substance use relapse among the youth is a worldwide concern with negative ramifications on their lives, families, communities and nations at large. Aim: The purpose of this study was to develop and validate a programme for the prevention of substance use relapse among youth with substance use problems in Lobatse, Botswana. Setting: The research was conducted at a referral psychiatric hospital in Lobatse, Botswana. Methods: A multiphase approach was used, which included an integrative literature review in phase one and two qualitative studies (exploratory, descriptive and contextual design) in the empirical phase. The survey list of the practice-oriented theory was used for concept classification and guided the programme's development. Results: The findings from the studies indicate that the programme for preventing substance use relapse among youth should focus more on aftercare initiatives such as tracking and assessment of those under this programme. Conclusion: A substance use relapse prevention programme for the youth should entail and provide impetus on the aftercare of the youth substance users to prevent their relapses. Contribution: The programme provides a robust strategy for preventing substance use relapse with actionable approaches for mental health professionals to effectively address the unique needs and circumstances of youth substance users through ongoing support and active engagement in recovery activities.
