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

objectiveThis study is designed to explore the effectiveness of pleasure perception training group (PPTG) therapy on adolescents with depression and the factors that influence the presence of non-suicidal self-injurious behavior (NSSI).

methodsA hundred and twenty adolescent depression patients were randomly assigned to either a control group (n = 60, routine treatment) or an observation group (n = 60, PPTG plus routine treatment) for two months. Outcome included depression (CDI), emotional intelligence (EIS), and self-injury (OSI) scores. Patients were stratified into NSSI and Non-NSSI groups based on NSSI history. Univariate and multifactorial logistic regression analyses were conducted to explore potential risk factors for NSSI.

resultsPost-treatment, CDI scores decreased and EIS scores significantly increased in both groups, with greater changes in the observation group (p < 0.05). OSI scores decreased in patients with NSSI, with lower scores in the observation group (p < 0.05). Regression analysis identified family history of psychiatric disorders, left-behind experience, childhood family dysfunction, childhood abuse, and exposure to school bullying as independent risk factors for NSSI (OR > 1, p < 0.05).

conclusionPPTG therapy effectively reduces depressive symptoms, enhances emotional regulation, and lowers NSSI in adolescents with depression. Several psychosocial factors independently increase NSSI risk.
