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

Introduction: Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) is a serious concern in adolescents and is associated with impairments in impulsivity and social functioning. However, the underlying neural mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to examine inhibitory control and its association with depressive symptoms and interpersonal distress in adolescents with NSSI using event-related potentials (ERPs) and source-level analysis. Methods: A total of 51 adolescents with NSSI and 50 HC were recruited. Psychological characteristics were assessed using standardized scales including the Interpersonal Needs Questionnaire (INQ) and Short UPPS-P Impulsivity Scale (SUPPS-P). EEG were recorded during a go/no-go task to measure P3 amplitudes. Source analysis was performed to localize the neural activity. Group differences were analyzed using RMANOVA, followed by Pearson correlation and mediation analyses to evaluate the relationships among the variables. Results: The NSSI group showed significantly lower accuracy than HCs. The interaction between group and electrode site was significant (p = .032, ηp² = .010), indicating spatially specific reductions in no-go P3 amplitude in the NSSI group. No-go P3 at Fz was negatively correlated with depressive symptoms and interpersonal distress. Source-level analysis revealed marginally reduced activation in the right superior frontal gyrus in the NSSI group but diminished after adjusting for depressive symptoms. Mediation analysis indicated that depressive symptoms significantly mediated the relationship between both neural indices and interpersonal distress. Conclusions: Adolescents with NSSI exhibit impaired inhibitory control that is associated with depressive symptoms and social distress. These findings highlight the role of affective dysregulation in linking cognitive control deficits to interpersonal functioning in NSSI.
