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

backgroundVeterans are overrepresented in the United States criminal justice system, yet limited research has examined how mental health, substance use, and psychosocial factors intersect to shape involvement in the justice system-particularly across gender. As the population of women veterans grows, understanding gender-based differences in criminal justice involvement is critical to developing targeted, patient-centered interventions.

methodsWe analyzed data from 1,360 post-9/11 veterans (M

resultsOverall, 15.0% of veterans reported post-deployment justice involvement (11.3% of women and 18.7% of men). Several factors were related to higher likelihood of post-deployment justice involvement in both groups (i.e., younger age, provisional alcohol use disorder diagnosis) while others were only related in one group (e.g., problematic anger among women; history of homelessness among men).

conclusionsOur findings underscore the importance of integrated, gender-responsive approaches to reduce justice involvement among veterans. Public health and criminal justice system interventions should address overlapping domains of need, including mental health, housing instability, and substance use, while tailoring strategies to gender-specific risk profiles.
