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
Mexican-origin individuals constitute the largest immigrant subgroup in the United States. With this rapidly growing population, it is critical to identify factors that promote positive mental health outcomes among Mexican-origin youth, who face discrimination as well as elevated rates of psychopathology. Family processes can play a key malleable role in fostering resilience and mitigating internalizing symptoms. This study examined family protective factors that may buffer the impact of racial-ethnic discrimination on adolescent mental health in a sample of 344 Mexican-origin youth, aged 12-15, with 335 mothers and 171 fathers across three waves of yearly data collection in a new migration area in the Midwestern United States. Youth reported on discrimination and internalizing symptoms at all waves. Youth, mothers, and fathers reported their perspectives on familism, family cohesion, and cultural socialization at all waves. Initial levels of discrimination were positively associated with final levels of internalizing symptoms. Latent growth curve moderation analyses revealed that youth-reported family cohesion and father-reported cultural socialization were significant buffers against the association between discrimination and distress. Contrary to our hypotheses, no moderating effects of familism were observed. Implications of these results for family-level prevention and intervention programs aimed at enhancing family resilience are highlighted. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2026 APA, all rights reserved).
