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
backgroundBody image concerns are accepted as a pervasive problem by a large segment of society. Problem-solving counseling is one of the practical counseling techniques that mainly focuses on improving people's adaptability in stressful situations. We intend to determine the effectiveness of pubertal health group counseling based on problem-solving on body image concerns and anxiety in adolescent girls. MATERIALS AND
methodsA semi-experimental study will be conducted on 12-13 years old students in Babol (Mazandaran, Iran). One hundred people were determined as the final Sample size (50 people in each group) and will be selected to enter the study. A multistage sampling method will be used. The students of the intervention group will receive the necessary training in the problem-solving method regarding pubertal health, once a week for six weeks. Students in the control group will not receive education during the intervention period. Sociodemographic questionnaire, Littleton's body image concern, and Zong's anxiety will be used to evaluate students' body image concerns and anxiety. Analyzes will be done by statistical package for the social sciences (SPSS) version 25 software and a significance level of 5% will be considered DISCUSSION: The effectiveness of counseling based on problem-solving has been reported in various studies on adolescent puberty health concerns and common adolescent mental health problems, hence its application on girls' body image can be effective.
