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

In the field of child sexual abuse prevention, there is a need for risk assessment tools that are time-sensitive and can predict an individual's risk of acting on sexual urges, whether this is watching child sexual abuse material (CSAM), interacting socially with a child for sexual purposes, or committing sexual abuse. We evaluated the predictive ability of the Sexual Child Molestation Risk Assessment (SChiMRA+), a self-report scale that assesses current motivation to act on sexual urges toward children (Part A) and captures past-week sexual behaviors toward children (Part B). Longitudinal data from two clinical trials aiming to reduce sexual behaviors toward children were analyzed; Priotab (testosterone-lowering medication;
