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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesThis study examines the perception of young Romanians (aged 18-35) regarding the Ukraine conflict's impact on Romania's national security and quality of life. It focuses on societal security dimensions, analyzing the conflict's regional and international implications, alongside sentiments toward global support for Ukraine.
methodsData were collected via structured questionnaires administered to 848 participants in 2024 and 747 in 2022. Respondents' perceptions of the Ukraine conflict, its influence on national security, and the direct consequences for quality of life were evaluated using the WHOQOL-BREF instrument. Statistical analyses (descriptive, bivariate, multivariate) were employed to explore variations across socio-demographic factors.
resultsThe findings indicate that young Romanians appreciate international solidarity with Ukraine but remain cautious about military escalation. While the conflict heightened perceptions of personal and national insecurity, WHOQOL-BREF assessments revealed significant declines in psychological, social, and environmental quality of life indicators from 2022 to 2024. Variations were observed based on age, gender, education level, and residence, with young rural women and those with lower educational attainment experiencing the most pronounced impacts.
conclusionsThe study underscores the dual challenges of maintaining regional stability and addressing the socio-psychological fallout of conflicts. Despite resilience mechanisms tempering subjective perceptions, objective measures indicate deteriorations in the quality of life among Romania's young population. These findings emphasize the need for targeted policies to support vulnerable groups through mental health initiatives, social support systems, and equitable access to resources.
