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

Background: Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) represents a significant clinical concern among adolescents. Although emotion regulation difficulties (ERD) and experiential avoidance are associated with NSSI, how these regulatory vulnerabilities co-occur within individuals and whether experiential avoidance influences the ERD-NSSI association remain unclear. This study aimed to characterize regulatory vulnerability profiles based on ERD and experiential avoidance and examine the moderating role of experiential avoidance in adolescent NSSI. Methods: The study included 456 adolescent psychiatric inpatients with NSSI ( Results: LPA identified three profiles characterized predominantly by low (23.25%), moderate (42.54%), and high (34.21%) levels of regulatory vulnerability. BCH analysis identified significant profile differences in NSSI, depression, and anxiety. NSSI and anxiety showed graded differences across profiles, while depressive symptoms were elevated in both Moderate and High profiles. Experiential avoidance showed a modest moderating effect on the association between ERD and NSSI ( Conclusion: Latent profiles of ERD and experiential avoidance were identified among adolescents with NSSI, with differences in clinical burden across profiles. Experiential avoidance modestly moderated the association between ERD and NSSI, with the magnitude of this association varying across levels of experiential avoidance. These findings provide complementary person-centered and variable-centered perspectives on regulatory vulnerability among adolescents with NSSI.
