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

Youth with learning differences (e.g., specific learning disorder and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) encounter exacerbated psychological and behavioral challenges compared to typically developing peers. Peer mentoring has proven beneficial in addressing such challenges, yet there is limited research on the efficacy of online peer mentorship programs for this population. This study investigates the effects of an online peer mentoring program on mentees' mental health, wellbeing, and behavior across 10 outcomes: anxiety, depression, fear, cognitive challenges, behavioral concerns, executive function, sleep difficulties, self-care, interpersonal skills, and self-esteem/self-confidence. Parents retrospectively reported on their child's mental health, wellbeing, and behavior prior to and since receiving online mentorship. Results indicated significant improvements across all outcomes following online mentorship. These findings highlight the effectiveness of online peer mentorship programs, emphasizing its potential as a valuable tool for supporting youth with learning differences.
