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
backgroundPatients with psychiatric disorders are more likely to experience financial difficulties. Yet, there is limited knowledge about the longitudinal relationship between psychopathology in adolescence and debts or experienced financial scarcity in emerging adulthood.
aimsWe aimed to examine whether distinct types of psychological symptoms in mid-adolescence precede the occurrence of unsecured debts and experienced financial scarcity in emerging adulthood.
methodData from a Dutch adolescent cohort (
resultsMore attention-deficit/hyperactivity problems (adjusted odds ratio 1.15, 95 CI% 1.04-1.27), oppositional defiant problems (adjusted odds ratio 1.17, 95 CI% 1.00-1.35) and psychotic experiences (adjusted odds ratio 1.10, 95 CI% 1.01-1.21) at age 15 years were associated with unsecured debts at age 18 years. Depressive, anxiety, somatic and conduct problems were not associated with later unsecured debts. Depressive, anxiety, attention-deficit/hyperactivity, oppositional defiant, conduct problems and psychotic experiences at age 15 years were associated with increased experienced financial scarcity at age 18 years.
conclusionsPsychological symptoms during mid-adolescence precede both objective and subjective financial difficulties when entering adulthood. Integrating financial education into prevention efforts could potentially provide significant long-term benefits, particularly for those with mental health problems.
