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: Although studies of moral injury proliferated over the past decade, few studies have examined common moral injury symptom presentations. Methods: Data were analyzed from a population-based sample ( Results: Latent profile analysis revealed three distinct symptom profiles based on MIDS items assessing psychological, emotional, social, and spiritual symptoms of moral injury. The majority of participants (74.7%, Discussion: These findings support the use of the MIDS in measurement-based care to identify distinct clinical presentations of moral injury, including those with moderate to severe presentations that warrant further evaluation and potentially treatment.
