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

Purpose: Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is characterized by heightened threat sensitivity, including attentional bias to threat, and associated with increased alcohol consumption. Given that alcohol consumption may be driven by or worsen PTSD symptoms, it is critical to consider how threat sensitivity relates to drinking in individuals with probable PTSD. Methods: In this study, 687 adults with probable PTSD (PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 symptoms ≥ 33; M Results: Personalized ABM was not significantly associated with reduced drink count, relative to placebo (rate ratio Conclusions: Our findings link threat sensitivity and stress with subsequent lower alcohol consumption, necessitating further research on the intersection of these factors with alcohol use in populations with probable PTSD.
