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: Exposure to traumatic experiences during military service can result in different psychological and social consequences for individuals and their close social networks. This study aims to contribute to a psychosocial understanding of these phenomena by examining whether the relationship between perceived socio-economic status and the health of Veterans is moderated by participation in Veterans' associations, as well as whether this moderation effect is moderated by the level of identification with the military group. Methods: A total of 480 male Portuguese Veterans (M Results: The results show that Veterans facing greater economic vulnerability report poorer health outcomes. However, those who are members of Veterans' associations, particularly those with a strong identification with the military, report better health despite their socio-economic vulnerability. Discussion: Overall, this study highlights the importance of Veterans' associations as identity-based support networks that can promote the health and well-being of military Veterans.
