The First Application of Trauma Event Centrality to Neurobiological Research: Assessing Cortisol Reactivity and Moderating Effects of Interpersonal Trauma.

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
Despite evidence suggesting links between trauma exposure and dysregulated hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis function-often manifesting as altered cortisol reactivity to stress-empirical findings remain inconsistent. These discrepancies may partially stem from reliance on dichotomous trauma classifications (i.e., presence/absence of potentially traumatic events [PTEs]) that fail to capture the subjective and contextual complexity of psychological traumatization. This study examined whether incorporating subjective trauma perceptions-specifically event centrality-and trauma type (interpersonal/non-interpersonal) would clarify associations between PTE exposure and blunted cortisol reactivity. Adults (N= 65; 42 female) participated in the Trier Social Stress Test, provided salivary cortisol samples, and completed trauma surveys. Multiple regression analyses revealed that higher event centrality was unexpectedly associated with greater cortisol reactivity in the full sample-an effect driven by female participants (b=7.46,p=.007,f
