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

The Tokyo Adolescent Mental Health Study (TAMHS) is an ongoing, school-based longitudinal cohort designed to elucidate the developmental trajectories of mental health among adolescents in Japan and to inform evidence-based strategies for promoting adolescent well-being. Since its inception in 2009, TAMHS has annually tracked adolescents aged 12-18 from a Tokyo secondary school known for its tradition of enrolling twins and triplets. Participants are followed for up to 6 years. As of 2024, 2,435 adolescents (1,211 boys, 1,196 girls, 28 unspecified), including 551 twins and triplets (22%), have been enrolled. This unique sample composition allows for rigorous comparisons between singletons and multiples to examine the impact of birth plurality on neurodevelopmental and mental health trajectories. High annual retention (96.2-99.2%) ensures the integrity of longitudinal analyses. Data are collected through self-report questionnaires covering demographics, physical and mental health status, daily habits and lifestyle behaviors, social relationships, behavioral problems, healthcare access, and social and environmental determinants of health. The study has yielded important insights into associations between adolescent lifestyle behaviors and mental health outcomes.
