1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundAdolescents in their school-age period undergo rapid changes in various aspects, such as physiological development, academic pressure, and interpersonal relationships, constitute a high-risk group for depression. Parental educational involvement, as a critical family variable, influences not only children's academic achievement but also their psychological well-being. However, previous research has shown significant discrepancies regarding the relationship between parental educational involvement and adolescent depressive symptoms.

methodsTo elucidate the overall strength of the association between parental educational involvement and adolescent depressive symptoms, this study systematically searched Web of Science, Medline, PubMed, CNKI, and other Chinese and English databases. A meta-analysis was conducted on 22 selected studies encompassing 36 effect sizes and involving 390,094 participants.

resultsThe results revealed a moderate negative correlation between parental educational involvement and adolescent depressive symptoms (r = -0.200, 95% CI [-0.26, -0.14]). Additionally, the relationship between parental educational involvement and adolescent depressive symptoms was found to be moderated by factors such as adolescent age, grade level and the reporter of parental educational involvement. However, it was not influenced by the female ratio or cultural background.

conclusionsThis study offers the inaugural comprehensive assessment of the relationship between parental educational involvement and adolescent depressive symptoms, with variations observed across different ages, grade levels, and reporter of parental educational involvement.
