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

Introduction: Previous studies have explored the relationship between Internet use and mental health, but there has been a lack of focus on social assistance recipients. Additionally, there has been insufficient discussion on the impact mechanisms of social support and family resilience on this relationship. This study aims to fill these gaps. Using data from social assistance recipients in China, this study analyzes the relationship between Internet use and the mental health of social assistance recipients and its mechanisms based on the Mindsponge Theory and Conservation of Resources Theory. Methods: This study used multiple linear regression models and PROCESS models to complete data analysis on 765 Chinese social assistance recipients samples to test the hypothesis. All analyzes were performed using SPSS26.0 and MPlus 8.0. Results: The empirical analysis shows that Internet use positively correlates with the mental health of social assistance recipients, and social support and family resilience mediate between Internet use and mental health. In addition, social support and family resilience also play a chain mediating role in the relationship between Internet use and mental health. Discussion: The analysis results of this study support our hypothesis. Combined with the findings of this study, we discussed the theoretical significance, practical significance, limitations, and future research directions of this study.
