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.
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
Chronic child irritability is a core dimension of externalizing behavior associated with significant short- and long-term risk. Mothers of children with externalizing disorders show considerable variability in mental health, parenting practices, and family functioning, yet links between these parental characteristics and elevated levels of child irritability and impairment remain unclear. Latent profile analysis was used to identify parent profiles based on self-report data from 385 mothers of clinic-referred children with disruptive behavior aged 6-12 years. Three profiles emerged: Mental Health Difficulties, Relatively Low Difficulties, and High Difficulties, varying in positive parenting, discipline practices, supervision, family functioning, and maternal mental health. The High Difficulties and Mental Health Difficulties groups showed the highest mother- and teacher-reported child irritability and the highest mother-reported child functional impairment. Child irritability did not mediate associations between parental profile membership and functional impairment. Findings highlight the importance of identifying parental and family-level factors as treatment targets related to elevated child irritability.
