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
backgroundMoral injury exacerbates poor outcomes, such as negative attitudes toward the future; however, the potential underlying mechanisms of this association remain unknown. This present study aimed to disentangle the pathways linking moral injury to confidence toward the future through the serial mediation effect of psychological resilience and valued living in a Turkish population.
methodsThe data analyzed were collected from representative samples of adult aged 18-65 years living in Gaziantep Province, Turkey. A total of 681 participants (77.7% female, mean age = 25.05) were included in this study. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to analyze the relationships among the variables.
resultsIndirect effects of moral injury on confidence toward the future were found. The direct effect of moral injury on attitudes toward the future in the presence of mediators was not significant (b = 0.014, p > 0.05). Thus, we concluded that there was a fully serial mediation by psychological resilience and valued living in the relationship between moral injury and attitudes toward the future (b = -0.077, 95% bootstrap CI: -0.115 to -0.048). LIMITATIONS: The main constraint of this study was its cross-sectional design, which restricted the capacity for causal inference.
conclusionsThese findings highlight the role of psychological resilience and valued living as serial mediators in the relationship between moral injury and confidence toward the future. Therefore, mental health professionals or clinicians incorporating intervention programs aimed at enhancing psychological resilience and promoting valued living could be beneficial, especially for individuals who have experienced moral injuries. Employing a multifaceted therapeutic approach may be advantageous in addressing these concerns.
