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

Firearm violence is pervasive for Black early adolescents in disinvested urban communities. The current study used a subsample of a longitudinal school-based dataset (N = 479, ages 10-17, 100% Black), which included middle school students from three urban communities who completed surveys at two time points (Fall, Spring). Cross-lagged panel models were run to specify the directionality of relations between five firearm exposure items and four peer factors; multiple group models tested differences in paths by sex and by grade. Results indicated that community firearm violence exposure was associated with higher adolescent-reported peer delinquency and peer support for aggression; peer support for nonviolence with less exposure over time. Significant cross-lagged paths were identified for females and older adolescents, but less so for males and younger adolescents. Results may inform community-relevant firearm violence prevention, intervention efforts for middle-school adolescents living in disinvested communities with elevated community violence prevalence.
