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
objectiveTo evaluate the association between modifiable lifestyle behaviors and mental health indicators in Brazilian adolescents.
methodsThis cross-sectional study used data from the 2019 National Survey of School Health including 152,860 students. The lifestyle behaviors and mental health indicators were obtained from a self-reported questionnaire. Logistic regression analyses were used to examine the association between lifestyle behaviors and mental health indicators.
resultsInfrequent healthy eating (OR 1.22; 95%CI 1.14-1.31), being inactive (OR 1.82; 95%CI 1.65-2.01), smoking (OR 1.24; 95%CI 1.10-1.40), and irregular school attendance (OR 1.31; 95%CI 1.22-1.40) were associated with not having close friends. Additionally, not having close friends was also associated with unhealthy eating (OR 0.86; 95%CI 0.81-0.92) and alcohol consumption (OR 0.81; 95%CI 0.75-0.87). Infrequent healthy eating (OR 1.29; 95%CI 1.24-1.33), frequent unhealthy eating (OR 1.39; 95%CI 1.35-1.43), being inactive (OR 1.12; 95%CI 1.07-1.18), excessive screen time and sitting (OR 1.10; 95%CI 1.07-1.14 and OR 1.68; 95%CI 1.63-1.73, respectively), smoking (OR 1.26; 95%CI 1.19-1.34), alcohol (OR 1.33; 95%CI 1.28-1.37), drugs (OR 1.13; 95%CI 1.05-1.22), and irregular school attendance (OR 1.53; 95%CI 1.48-1.59) were associated with worse self-rated mental health.
