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

Introduction: Adolescent mental health and family functioning have received limited attention in UK military families. This study investigated their association with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and depression in military fathers. Methods: In total, 105 serving and ex-serving members of the UK Armed Forces, and 137 of their adolescent offspring (ages 11 to 17 years), were included in this cross-sectional secondary data analysis. Data were collected online and at home using validated questionnaires. Results: Probable PTSD or depression was associated with more impaired general family functioning (unadjusted b = 0.21; 95% CI, 0.07-0.35; Discussion: This highlights the importance of supporting the well-being of military families, especially when parents have mental health problems.
