Article in Heliyon, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Job performance can be negatively affected by work procrastination, and few studies have been conducted on how work tasks affect procrastination. Based on the Temporal Motivation Theory, this study uses an empirical method to explore the relationship between employees' perceived illegitimate tasks and work procrastination by analyzing the mediating role of negative emotions and the moderating role of paternalistic leadership (authoritative, benevolent, and virtuous leadership). These findings indicate that perceived illegitimate tasks are positively related to work procrastination. Negative emotions mediated the relationship between perceived illegitimate tasks and procrastination. Benevolent leadership negatively moderates the relationship between perceived illegitimate tasks and work procrastination, whereas authoritative and virtuous leadership positively moderate it. The findings of this study enrich research on the mechanisms of action between illegitimate tasks and work procrastination and provide a guide for managers to reduce work procrastination.
