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

Rumination is a cognitive habit involving repetitive negative thinking (RNT). It is a risk factor for depression and develops during late childhood. Targeted interventions to reduce rumination are critical for reducing risk for and impact of depression. Therefore, quick and sensitive scales are needed to capture concrete, quantifiable changes in rumination habit. We developed and evaluated the Tracking Rumination As a Stable Habit (TRASH) measure, to align with Rumination-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (RF-CBT). The scale was derived, modified and expanded on from the Habit Index of Negative Thinking (HINT). TRASH assesses automaticity and consistency of the habit, quantifiable elements of the daily habit. As part of a larger trial of RF-CBT, 120 adolescents (age mean [sd]: 15.73 [1.11], 67.5% female) completed all scales. Internal reliability of the scale was high (overall
