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

Alcohol use and related problems may be prevalent among sexual minority young adults. Several sexual minority individuals endure minority stressors as well as disproportionate trauma exposure and PTSD symptoms compared to their heterosexual counterparts. We tested whether PTSD symptoms moderated the associations between minority stressors (heterosexist discrimination, internalized heterosexism, identity concealment, and identity disclosure) and alcohol use and related problems among 342 sexual minority young adults. PTSD symptoms strengthened the association between identity concealment and PTSD symptoms. Additionally, PTSD symptoms associated with alcohol use and internalized heterosexism associated with alcohol use. These findings may inform tailored alcohol misuse interventions for sexual minority young adults.
