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

Childhood trauma is a critical and highly destructive risk factor for aggression. To examine the relationship between childhood trauma and aggression in incarcerated males, this study recruited 739 incarcerated males from Inner Mongolia, China. The Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ), the Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI), and the Buss-Perry Aggression Questionnaire (BPAQ) were used to measure childhood trauma, empathic concern and perspective-taking, and aggression, respectively. This study aimed to examine whether empathic concern and perspective-taking have parallel mediating effects in the relationship between childhood trauma and aggression. The results showed that: (1) Childhood trauma was significantly positively correlated with aggression (
