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
objectiveThis study aimed to investigate whether perceived stigma and mental health literacy play mediating roles in the correlation between school climate and help-seeking behavior in Indonesian adolescents.
methodsWe used cross-sectional study design that recruited 760 Indonesian adolescents of age 16-19 years. We used convenience sampling from July to September 2019. Bivariate analysis was used to investigate the association of demographic characteristics with help-seeking behavior. Mediation analysis was employed to explore the mediating roles of mental health literacy and perceived stigma on the relationship between school climate and help-seeking behavior.
resultsFindings indicated that ethnicity, family income, and father's educational level were significantly associated (p < 0.05) with help-seeking behavior in Indonesian adolescents. Furthermore, perceived stigma and mental health literacy sequentially showed partial mediating roles in the relationship between school climate and help-seeking behavior (indirect effect: 0.004; 95% CI: 0.001, 0.010). Our mediating model indicated that a high level of school climate was associated with low perceived stigma (b = -0.11, p < 0.001) and high mental health literacy (b = 0.28, p < 0.001) and higher help-seeking behavior (b = 0.14, p < 0.001).
conclusionOur study discovered novel insight of help-seeking behavior mechanism among adolescent by serial mediation test. Supportive school climate is necessary to achieve adequate help-seeking behavior. In addition, taking into account of student's perceived stigma and mental health literacy in promoting help-seeking behavior is also important.
