School mental health prevention and intervention strategies in China: a scoping review.
Article in The Lancet regional health. Western Pacific, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers.
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
Student mental health issues remain a significant global concern, imposing considerable health, social, and economic burdens. China has also published numerous national policies prioritizing this area. To further investigate the current prevention and intervention programs, we conducted a scoping review, searching six databases (three in English and three in Chinese) up to May 2024. A total of 77 eligible studies were included. Our findings highlight several gaps in current practices, such as regional disparities in school-based mental health programs, insufficient focus on younger children and developmental issues, limited comprehensive pathways from screening to classification, prevention, and intervention, and a lack of an integrated approach to promoting mental health among children and adolescents. These findings indicate an urgent need for improvements in this field, calling for future studies to help reduce the burden of mental health problems and support the holistic development of children in China.
