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

backgroundChild-to-parent violence (CPV) is a serious but under-researched form of family violence. There is a lack of previous studies examining whether school violence and exposure to parental violence interact in their association with CPV. We hypothesize that involvement in school violence - as victim or perpetrator - is more strongly associated with physical CPV among individuals who have been exposed to parental violence.

methodsData are drawn from a large cross-sectional study conducted in 35 schools in southern Sweden. The sample comprises 5,052 adolescents (46.7% male; Mage = 16.2, SD = 1.55). Linear probability models are used to calculate the associations between school violence, exposure to parental violence, and physical CPV.

resultsThe results show that involvement in school violence - either as a victim, perpetrator, or victim/perpetrator - is positively associated with physical CPV. The results support the hypothesis that the association between involvement in school violence and physical CPV is stronger among those individuals who have been exposed to parental violence.

conclusionsThis study underscores the importance of further exploring how different contexts interact in their associations with CPV. These interactions suggest that a key question for future research is how to develop effective preventive strategies.
