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

Moral injury, a persistent distress arising from experiences that shatter one's sense of goodness in oneself, others, or higher powers, is consistently linked to trauma yet remains underexplored among childhood sexual abuse (CSA) survivors. Additionally, while positive and negative religious coping often serve as protective and risk factors for adverse mental health outcomes, respectively, no research to these authors' knowledge has examined their relationship to moral injury. The present study investigated how CSA severity, moral injury, and religious coping influence depressive symptoms among survivors of CSA. Adult CSA survivors (N = 376) were recruited via Prolific (56.91% female; M
