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

Children living in custodial-mother families are disproportionately poor as compared to children living with both parents. Child support from the noncustodial father is associated with lower poverty rates among custodial-mother families, suggesting that policies to promote child support payments improve the economic well-being of these families. Yet, we do not know whether child support remains a protective factor against child poverty when other anti-poverty strategies are considered, and whether this association remains significant throughout childhood, especially in middle- and low-income countries. We contribute to addressing these research gaps by investigating the following questions in Chile and Colombia: (1) How do child poverty and child support receipt change over time among children in custodial-mother families? (2) To what extent does child support protect these children against
