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.
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
Background: Effective reintegration into the community requires tailored treatment programs that address criminogenic needs. Ultimately, these efforts are essential to maintaining public safety. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate whether our outpatient program met the criminogenic needs of participants. Method: Between 2008 and 2023, treatment needs of a sample of 955 male sexual offenders were assessed using the Static-99 tool and standardized risk levels. Results: A significant 63.5% of the offenders exhibited treatment needs. Among the total population, 56% were undertreated, 14% overtreated, and 30% adequately treated. Therapy in sociotherapeutic facilities had a significant influence on over- and undertreatment. Conclusion: The degrees of treatment based on standardized risk levels are proving to be very valuable in forensic outpatient care, underscoring an urgent requirement for more individualized treatment strategies. Sociotherapeutic interventions play a key role in reducing undertreatment.
