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

This study examines home-leaving patterns among Middle Eastern (ME) immigrants and youth with ME backgrounds in Sweden using population register data for individuals aged 17 to 35 between 1998 and 2022. Applying competing risks models, we analyse transitions from the parental home to independent living while accounting for marriage as an alternative pathway. The results show that youth of ME origin are less likely than native Swedes to leave the parental home for independent living and more likely to transition directly into marriage. These differences are particularly pronounced among the second generation and among women. Individual and parental socio-economic characteristics explain only a small share of the observed gaps between immigrants and natives, while neighbourhood unemployment is strongly associated with lower transition rates to independent living. Overall, the findings highlight persistent differences in the timing and pathways of leaving the parental home between immigrant-origin youth and the native population.
