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

objectiveThe aim of this study was to analyze the prevalence, associated factors, and the relationship between the existence of school violence prevention policies and physical aggression victimization among Brazilian adolescents.

methodsCross-sectional study based on data from the 2015 National School Health Survey (PeNSE). The sample included 15,954 adolescents aged 11-19 years, enrolled in public and private schools across all regions of Brazil. Victimization was measured through self-reported experiences of physical aggression in the past 12 months. Sociodemographic, behavioral, relational, and schoolrelated variables were analyzed. The association between these variables and victimization was estimated using Poisson regression with robust variance.

resultsThe prevalence of physical aggression victimization was 17.1%. Factors associated with higher prevalence included male sex, Black or other non-White ethnicities, reports of bullying, alcohol and cigarette use, high screen time, and being physically active. In contrast, older age and having a larger number of friends were protective factors. The presence of integrated actions with primary health care was associated with a lower likelihood of victimization (PR 0.82; 95%CI 0.74-0.90; p<0.001), whereas formal school policies showed no significant association.

conclusionsPhysical aggression victimization among adolescents is a relevant and multifactorial problem. Intersectoral actions between health and education have the potential to reduce school violence, whereas isolated policies are ineffective without community engagement and a contextualized approach.
