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: Adolescents in foster homes encounter difficulties adjusting to new environments and managing life transitions. The separation from their families often results in emotional distress, which may increase their susceptibility to depression. Objective: This descriptive correlational study examined relationships of gender, duration of living in a foster home, resilience, intimacy of friendship, prosocial behavior, and perceived stigmatization with depression among adolescents in foster homes. Methods: Purposive sampling was used to recruit 224 adolescents from two foster homes situated in Bangkok and its surrounding regions. Data were collected from August to December 2023 using a general information questionnaire, the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale, the Resilience Inventory, the Friendship Intimacy Scale, the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (as Part of the Assessment of Prosocial Behavior), and the Perceived Stigmatization Questionnaire. Data analysis was conducted using Spearman's rank correlation. Results: 32.14% of the adolescents reported experiencing depression. Approximately 70.09% of participants were female. Participants were aged 10 to 24 (Mean = 14.29, SD = 3.04). The mean resilience score was 100.87 (SD = 14.48), the mean intimacy of friendship score was 41.54 (SD = 8.77), the mean prosocial behavior score was 6.25 (SD = 1.78), and the mean perceived stigmatization score was 16.50 (SD = 6.23). Gender was significantly correlated with depression ( Conclusion: Being female, shorter duration of living in a foster home, less resilience, less intimacy of friendship, and higher perceived stigmatization are related to higher depression in adolescents in foster homes. These results provided information for psychiatric and mental health nurses in planning care to prevent or reduce depression for this vulnerable group of adolescents.
