Mathematical modelling, analysis and numerical simulation of social media addiction and depression.
Article in PloS one, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
We formulate a mathematical model of social media addiction and depression (SMAD) in this study. Key aspects, such as social media addiction and depression disease-free equilibrium point (SMADDFEP), social media addiction and depression endemic equilibrium point (SMADEEP), and basic reproduction number (R0), have been analyzed qualitatively. The results indicate that if R0 < 1, the SMADDFEP is locally asymptotically stable. The global asymptotic stability of the SMADDFEP has been established using the Castillo-Chavez theorem. On the other hand, if R0 > 1, the unique endemic equilibrium point (SMADEEP) is locally asymptotically stable by Lyapunov theorem, and the model exhibits a forward bifurcation at R0 = 1 according to the Center Manifold theorem. To examine the model's sensitivity, we calculated the normalized forward sensitivity index and conducted a Partial Rank Correlation Coefficient (PRCC) analysis to describe the influence of parameters on the SMAD. The numerical results obtained using the Fourth-order Runge-Kutta (RK-4) scheme show that increasing the number of addicted individuals leads to an increase in the number of depressed individuals.
