Relationship of negative life events with depression and anxiety in nursing students: a moderated mediation model of resilience and gender.
Article in BMC nursing, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundCompared to ordinary student in the same age group, nursing students experience notably higher rates of depression and anxiety. Negative life events (NLEs) and resilience were recognized as risk factors and protective factors, respectively. There is little literature on the complex interaction of these factors among nursing students.
objectivesThe study aims to explore the potential relationship of NLEs, resilience, and gender with symptoms of depression and anxiety among nursing students.
methodsA cross-sectional design was used for this study. A total of 568 participants from three universities in East, South and North China were recruited. Data collection instruments included socio-demographic characteristics, the Patient Health Questionnaire-9, the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale, the 10-item Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, the Adolescent Life Events Self-Rating Scale, and The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. A moderated mediation model was used to analyze the data.
resultsNLEs and resilience significantly related to depression and anxiety (r = -0.289 ~ 0.454, all ps < 0.01). NLEs had a direct effect on depression (B = 0.251, p < 0.001) and anxiety (B = 0.307, p < 0.001). Analysis of mediating effects revealed that NLEs influenced depression (B = 0.02, 95% CI : 0.004-0.041) and anxiety (B = 0.019, 95% CI : 0.004-0.040) through resilience pathways. Additionally, gender was found to have a moderating effect on the direct association of NLEs with anxiety (B = -0.031, p < 0.05), with males showing a greater association.
conclusionsThe findings suggest that improving resilience may help break the relationship of NLEs with depression and anxiety in nursing students. Additionally, the mental health of male nursing students needs more attention.
