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

Introduction: Despite the longstanding interest in the factors influencing nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI), less attention has been paid to how risk and protective factors interact to influence adolescents' NSSI behaviors. NSSI is a serious psychological crisis with complex etiology that is usually not triggered by a single chance event. Therefore, assessing NSSI based on risk factors alone is inherently inaccurate. In order to provide a more accurate and comprehensive risk assessment framework, we explored the specific patterns of combinations of risk and protective factors within intra-individual and environmental of adolescents involved in NSSI. Methods: 1091 participants were evaluated on six indicators: depression, emotion regulation, regulatory emotional self-efficacy, resilience, family functioning, and social support. Results: The results showed three latent profiles: low risk-high protection (30.62%), medium risk-medium protection (58.20%), and high risk-low protection (11.18%). Compared to low risk-high protection, adolescents in medium risk-medium protection (OR = 2.49) and high risk-low protection (OR = 11.46) were significantly associated with increased odds of experiencing NSSI. Discussion: The findings suggest that we should focus our prevention efforts on a group of adolescents with high-risk-low-protective characteristics to effectively reduce the incidence of NSSI behaviors by enhancing their protective factors or reducing their risk factors.
