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

objectivesThis study assessed the Czech version of the Inventory of Personality Organization (IPO-CZ) in relation to borderline personality disorder (BPD) as defined in the ICD-11 model for PDs and defensive functioning in BPDs. The IPO-CZ was used as a proxy measure of personality functioning (PF), although not fully identical to the conception of PF within the ICD-11 framework defined by the severity of self-other impairment.

methodsThe IPO-57, Borderline Personality Questionnaire, and Defense Style Questionnaire were administered to general population volunteers (n = 371) and mixed psychiatric patients (n = 293).

resultsThree-factor solution of the IPO-CZ (i.e., Instability of self and others [ISO]; Instability of goals and behaviors [IGB]; and Psychosis) was confirmed, to a large extent reflecting Kernberg's initial concept of personality organization. Since the measurement invariance of the 57-item version was not confirmed across samples, a 14-item version of the IPO-CZ was developed. ISO was strongly associated with self-other pathology in both samples, IGB showed to be an indicator of immature defensive functioning in both samples and mature-neurotic defenses in clinical sample when IPO-14 was used.

conclusionWhile ISO appears to be an indicator of PF in terms of general self-other disturbance, IGB may be considered a specifier of the defense mechanism-based management of impulsive aggression typical of BPD patients that should not be ignored. Moreover, the study found measurement invariance across general and clinical sample for IPO-14.
