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
Purpose: Due to the current COVID-19 pandemic, many new stressors have arisen, which is associated with an increased risk of mental disorders. The purpose of this article is to assess the prevalence of adjustment disorder and symptoms of anxiety and depression in the Polish population, on the basis of two studies conducted during the pandemic. Methods: Two online survey studies were conducted at different time points: the first in March 2020 on a Results: In Study I, 75% of participants considered the COVID-19 pandemic to be highly stressful and 43% declared they met the criteria for adjustment disorder. When anxiety and depression were excluded 8.4% of participants met the criteria. On the other hand, in Study II, the criteria for this disorder (without the exclusion of other disorders) were met by 52%. In both studies, significant positive correlations were observed between the symptoms of adjustment disorder and those of anxiety and depression. Conclusions: The research provides important data on the mental health of Poles during the pandemic. The proportion of people who have potentially met the criteria for adjustment disorder, as well as for depression and anxiety, seems very high. It is advisable to continue monitoring the occurrence of these disorders, depending on developments in the changing context of the pandemic.
