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: Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) has increasingly become a common health concern among young adults. To effectively address and prevent NSSI, it is crucial to understand the impact of both early childhood maltreatment and recent stress, which are well-established risk factors. Previous studies have primarily focused on these factors individually or overall, while neglecting the potential heterogeneity of childhood maltreatment and recent stress when these factors co-occur. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the potential latent types of childhood maltreatment and recent stress and their associations with NSSI among young adults. Methods: A sample of 5,224 young adults were recruited via cluster sampling. Participants completed a battery of self-report questionnaires assessing childhood maltreatment, recent life stress, and NSSI behaviors in a cross-sectional design. Latent profile analysis was conducted to characterize distinct subgroups of childhood maltreatment and recent stress exposure. Subsequently, multiple logistic regression and mediation analyses were utilized to evaluate the differential associations between identified classes and NSSI and to assess indirect associations involving inadequate-self, hated-self, and self-compassion. Results: Participants' childhood maltreatment and recent stress were classified into four latent profiles: the "childhood maltreatment predominant group" ( Conclusions: Young adults demonstrated significant heterogeneity in the joint patterns of childhood maltreatment and recent stress, with certain subgroups being associated with a substantially higher probability of NSSI. Early identification of these at-risk profiles may help mental health professionals and educators to implement tailored assessment and prevention efforts addressing self-related processes, including self-criticism and self-compassion, thereby informing the prevention of NSSI.
