The Effectiveness of EduMind for Mental Health Promotion Among Youths.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Introduction The global surge in mental health issues, particularly among the youth, is evident. Despite the proliferation of digital mental health services, their adoption remains limited, hindered by various barriers. To address this issue, an evidence-based, validated digital mental health intervention is necessary. Although much research has explored the effectiveness of such interventions, there was limited evidence supporting those within the youth population. The objective of this research is to assess the effects of an interventional module on depression, anxiety, and stress symptoms among youths. Methods The EduMind online mental health intervention contents were developed from a needs assessment and a scoping review of effective psychotherapies, achieving a high content validation index (CVI) of 0.96. The contents were integrated into a web application to assess its effectiveness among the target population which consisted of university students of a local institution. A quasi-experimental study compared the intervention group (n=264) to a waitlist-control group (n=200), evaluating changes in mental health status with the Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale 21 (DASS-21) questionnaire using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) to analyse mean differences. Results Participants in the intervention group indicated a significant decrease (
