Meta-Review on the Effectiveness of Classroom-Based Psychological Interventions Aimed at Improving Student Mental Health and Well-Being, and Preventing Mental Illness.
Review in The journal of primary prevention, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.
Who cites it
9 citing papers in PubMed, 1 synthesis or guideline pooled it.

Abstract
This meta-review summarizes existing evidence from systematic reviews and meta-analyses on the effectiveness of school-based psychological interventions aimed at improving student mental health and well-being, and preventing mental illness. Systematic reviews and meta-analyses were identified via the electronic databases PsycINFO, Web of Knowledge, Medline, Embase, and HMIC (Health Management Information Consortium). Ten systematic reviews and meta-analysis were eligible for inclusion in the final analyses. These systematic reviews and meta-analyses evaluated the effects of five types of school-based psychological interventions: Mindfulness, Social Emotional Learning, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Yoga, and Body-Image. Overall effectiveness reported in the included studies was significant for the most part, and ranging from small to large with respect to the effect size. The authors of all of the studies emphasized the need for additional high-quality trials to further examine the effectiveness of school-based psychological interventions aimed at improving student mental health and well-being, and preventing mental illness.
