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

Behavioral economics highlights external influences on alcohol's reinforcing value and suggests life transitions in the mid-to-late 20s may increase costs of drinking, contributing to developmentally mediated drinking reductions among emerging adults. However, higher value for alcohol and fewer substance-free alternatives are theorized to predict persistent risky drinking. The current study compared behavioral economic indices of alcohol value with internalizing symptoms (e.g., anxiety, depression), an established correlate of drinking, as predictors of trajectories of heavy drinking days (HDDs) and alcohol problems among emerging adults.
