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: People bereaved due to COVID-19 may face mental health challenges and posttraumatic growth opportunities. Resilience, as an inherent trait or ability, may protect the bereaved from developing mental health problems and facilitate growth. The Dual Process Model (DPM) is an important framework for understanding adaptation after bereavement. However, little is known about whether resilience could help with adjusting to COVID-19 bereavement and whether dual process coping plays a part in the relationship between resilience and mental health among COVID-19 bereaved individuals. Objective: We aim to examine the relationship between resilience and symptoms of prolonged grief, posttraumatic stress, anxiety, depression, and posttraumatic growth following COVID-19 bereavement, and to investigate the role of dual process coping, which includes loss-oriented (LO) coping, restoration-oriented (RO) coping, and oscillation between LO coping and RO coping in this relationship. Design: This is an online cross-sectional survey. Method: A total of 408 Chinese participants who lost a close person due to COVID-19 participated in the study from September to October 2020. Demographic and loss-related information was collected. Resilience, dual process coping, symptoms of prolonged grief, posttraumatic stress, anxiety, depression, and posttraumatic growth were measured. Correlation analyses and mediation analyses were conducted to analyze the data. Results: Resilience was negatively correlated with anxiety and depressive symptoms and positively correlated with posttraumatic growth. In the relationship between LO coping, RO coping, oscillation, and mental health, LO coping was positively associated with prolonged grief, posttraumatic stress, anxiety, and depressive symptoms, as well as posttraumatic growth; RO coping was negatively associated with prolonged grief symptoms and posttraumatic growth, and positively associated with anxiety and depressive symptoms; oscillation was negatively associated with prolonged grief, posttraumatic stress, anxiety, and depressive symptoms. In addition, mediation analysis showed that oscillation mediated the relationship between resilience and anxiety and depressive symptoms, and RO coping mediated the relationship between resilience and depressive symptoms and posttraumatic growth. Conclusion: Our findings indicate that among individuals who have experienced bereavement due to COVID-19, RO coping serves a protective role in the relationship between resilience and depressive symptoms and a facilitative role in the relationship between resilience and posttraumatic growth. Additionally, oscillation plays a protective role in the association between resilience and symptoms of anxiety and depression. Professionals should consider the bereaved individuals' resilience, LO coping, RO coping, and oscillation when providing support to those bereaved by COVID-19.
