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

The onus for educating and supporting young people in navigating romantic relationships often falls on professional youth work organizations; yet, evidence relating to healthy young adult relationship (HYAR) education programmes delivered within these settings remains limited. The present study sought to capture youth work professionals' views as part of a research programme focused on developing HYAR education resources for young people. Eleven youth work professionals in Northern Ireland participated in individual interviews or focus groups (5 interviews and 2 focus groups) between September and November 2024. Three master themes were identified using Reflexive Thematic Analysis: (1) defining and understanding coercive control; (2) barriers to communicating and reporting; and 3) training needs. The findings highlight professionals' perceptions of HYAR education and training needs of young people, parents and professionals. Participating professionals believed that youth work organizations should assume a key role in delivering HYAR education in a meaningful and accessible way.
