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

This study examined how childhood maltreatment, bullying victimization, and weakness in social competition co-occur and are associated with adolescent adjustment through belief in a just world (BJW). Data were collected from 1,302 Chinese adolescents over six months. Latent profile analysis identified three adversity profiles: low-adversity profile (84.2%), moderate-adversity, predominantly family maltreatment profile (11.2%), and high-adversity, predominantly peer-related profile (4.6%). Adolescents in the moderate- and high-adversity profiles reported more depressive and externalizing symptoms than those in the low-adversity profile, with the high-adversity profile showing the highest symptom levels. Multicategorical mediation analyses indicated that both general and personal BJW indirectly linked adversity profiles to depressive symptoms, whereas only general BJW indirectly linked adversity profiles to externalizing symptoms. The findings highlight the importance of co-occurring adversity patterns and suggest that BJW may serve as a partial psychological mechanism linking adversity profiles to adolescent adjustment.
