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

Children and youth with the Dysregulation Profile (DP) experience marked difficulties regulating cognition, affect, and behavior. Although these impairments are known to have lasting effects into adulthood, less is understood about how dysregulation changes during the transition from adolescence to emerging adulthood. Dysregulation has also been linked to increased risk for substance use disorder, yet its relationship with substance use during the adolescence-to-emerging-adulthood transition remains unclear. This study examined how dysregulation covaries with substance use from adolescence to emerging adulthood in 662 Canadian youth (Mage = 15.52) followed over 10 years. Multilevel modeling showed that dysregulation increased during adolescence and declined in emerging adulthood. Both between- and within-person substance use predicted dysregulation: higher average substance use was associated with higher overall dysregulation, and above-average substance use corresponded to higher dysregulation at the same time point. These findings clarify developmental changes in dysregulation and highlight its close association with substance use.
