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

This article presents findings from a pilot that tested a novel "client network audit" approach, designed to enhance supervision by mapping social networks through structured input from frontline practitioners. Adapting the group audit methodology for collecting network information that is used extensively in gang violence interventions, this project measured cognitive network data from two probation officers and a community-based partner to examine areas of consensus and divergence in perceptions of influential relationships in a client's life. A focus group conducted with participants after the study revealed several themes, including the utility of identifying hidden risks and opportunities for intervention and enhancing multi-agency coordination. This exploratory study finds that, while there are key areas of overlap in these perceptions, there are substantial gaps, indicating that individuals possess unique information about social relationships that is unknown to other respondents. As jurisdictions seek innovative strategies to improve interventions for youth entrenched in high-harm networks, this model offers a potentially promising pathway.
