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

backgroundPsychotic experiences (PEs) in are associated with elevated risk for mental health difficulties. This study examined predictors of PEs, inclusive of the role of gender, ethnicity, and protective factors.

methodsData were drawn from a 2021 Planet Youth survey of adolescents (n = 4,005). PEs were measured using the adolescent psychotic symptom screener. Effects of psychosocial predictors on PEs were measured by fitting multivariable logistic regression main effect and joint exposure models.

results29.8% reported PEs. Black/Asian/Other minorities had elevated odds (a

conclusionsFindings highlight the interplay of risk and protective factors in adolescent PEs, with increased vulnerability among minoritized youth. Results support targeted interventions to reduce mental health disparities.
