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

The advent of the internet and the incorporation of digital devices into our daily lives are extremely relevant phenomena for understanding contemporary forms of subjectivation. Psychoanalysis, by privileging a gaze on unconscious manifestations and on the constitution of the psyche, has much to contribute to this debate. Using André Green's theoretical contributions on the clinic of emptiness as our theoretical basis, we apply the concepts of the negative and double-bind to a clinical vignette, to illustrate the link between devitalized states and digital hyperconnectivity. We highlight the complexity of the issue, acknowledging that we are simultaneously creators and creatures of virtuality.
