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
Background: Adolescents with Nephrotic Syndrome (NS) confront unique challenges that influence their Meaning of Life (MOL), a concept crucial for psychological resilience. The chronic nature of NS and its associated burdens necessitate a deeper exploration of MOL and its determinants within this demographic, previously underexamined in research. This study aims to investigate MOL among Chinese adolescents with NS, identifying key factors influencing their sense of meaning and examining the interrelations with Subjective Well-Being (SWB) and Psychological Security (PS). Methods: Employing a cross-sectional survey design, we analyzed 150 adolescents with NS from Baise City, Guangxi, using the Purpose in Life (PIL) scale alongside PS and SWB scales. Sociodemographic and disease-related variables were assessed for their impact on MOL. Data analysis included descriptive statistics, multiple linear regression, and correlation analyses to explore predictors of MOL and its association with SWB and PS. Results: A significant proportion (62.0%) of participants exhibited MOL scores below the threshold, indicating diminished life meaning. Critical factors impacting MOL included 'left-behind' status, family structure, educational disruptions, and NS duration. Strong correlations emerged between MOL, SWB ( Conclusion: The findings underline the profound impact of NS on adolescents' MOL, influenced by both sociodemographic and disease-specific factors. By identifying key areas for psychological intervention, this study contributes to the holistic care and treatment of adolescents with NS, advocating for integrated approaches that address their unique challenges and support systems.
