A Meta-Analysis on Mobile-Assisted Language Learning Applications: Benefits and Risks.
Article in Psychologica Belgica, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.

Abstract
Mobile language learning applications are a pervasive facet of modern life, however evidence on their effectiveness on L2 learning outcomes is lacking. In the current work, we sought to determine the effect of mobile language learning applications on L2 proficiency between groups who used mobile language learning applications and control groups who learned with traditional methods on L2 achievement. We systematically searched journal articles and grey literature between 2007-2019 and performed a quantitative meta-analysis based on 23 synthesized effect sizes. We also performed risk of bias and quality of evidence assessments on our included papers. We found a moderate-to-strong overall effect (
