Maternal psychopathic traits prospectively predict youth callous-unemotional traits.

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.
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
Background: Callous-unemotional (CU) traits identify a subgroup of youth with conduct disorder (CD) at heightened risk for persistent antisocial behavior and poor long-term outcomes. Although parental psychopathic traits have been associated with offspring CU traits, less is known about whether specific psychopathic facets uniquely predict adolescent CU trajectories beyond baseline CU traits, particularly among youth diagnosed with CD. Methods: The present study examined whether maternal psychopathic traits were prospectively associated with higher youth CU traits over a 12-month period in a sample of adolescents diagnosed with CD. The sample included 99 youth-caregiver dyads ( Results: Baseline CU traits were associated with higher CU traits at 12-month follow-up ( Conclusions: Maternal affective psychopathic traits were prospectively associated with adolescent CU traits beyond baseline CU traits. These findings suggest that caregiver personality characteristics, particularly affective psychopathic traits, represent important familial risk markers associated with adolescent CU trajectories and highlight the value of examining caregiver personality characteristics in future developmental research.
