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

Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a complex condition characterized by emotional instability, interpersonal difficulties, and impulsivity. Although previous studies have explored the influence of family environment on BPD manifestation, methodological gaps remain in investigating these relationships, particularly in capturing multiple perspectives within the same family. This study proposes a methodological approach to compare dyads of patients and a family member using a genogram. The research involved 12 participants (6 patients and 6 family members), analyzing their perceptions of emotional family relationships (such as risk/protective factors) and symptom severity. The results of mixed methods indicated discrepancies between patients and family members regarding two categories of emotional relationships and risk behavior: "Distant/poor" and "Physical Abuse." This study discusses other potential uses of the genogram for capturing nuances in family relationships and new possibilities for more effective therapeutic interventions.
