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: In an increasingly digital world, young people are becoming more vulnerable to an emerging form of intimate partner violence, termed digital dating abuse, where technology facilitates abusive behaviors. Though prior studies suggest that alcohol use/problems and emotion dysregulation are predictors of digital dating abuse, findings on whether these associations vary by gender are mixed. Objective: We explored associations among alcohol use/problems, emotion dysregulation, and gender on 3 types of digital dating abuse perpetration: digital coercion (eg, pressuring for explicit images), direct aggression (eg, sending threats online), and monitoring (eg, tracking a partner's online activities). This study also examined the 3-way interaction among these 3 variables to assess their combined influence on digital dating abuse. Design: We aimed to answer the question: Methods: Participants were ( Results: Alcohol use/problems were consistently associated with all forms of digital dating abuse. While emotion dysregulation predicted digital direct aggression and digital monitoring, it did not predict digital coercion. Notably, alcohol use/problems and emotion dysregulation exhibited an interactive effect on digital monitoring, with higher emotion dysregulation amplifying the relationship between alcohol use/problems and controlling behaviors. When controlling for gender, no significant gender differences emerged across these associations. Conclusion: Findings suggest that interventions addressing alcohol misuse and emotion dysregulation may be effective in preventing digital dating abuse, particularly among young adults.
