Article in Frontiers in psychology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Heroes are everywhere, and shine the brightest in the dark. Although the concept of heroism has been widely discussed in the fields of philosophy and social sciences, the personality traits of civil heroes emerging from great disasters has remained unexplored topic. Methods: The qualitative research methodologies are conducted to dissect and elucidate the multifaceted personality traits of civil heroes, through semi-structured interviews with 50 eyewitnesses and participants in relief efforts following the Wenchuan Earthquake of China. Results: Civil heroes are ordinary individuals who display profound loyalty to the nation and its people, uphold a steadfast belief in self-reliance, boldly confront risks and challenges, continually surpass themselves, and strive to accomplish remarkable feats. The personality traits encompass five dimensions (i.e., patriotism and love for the people, independence and self-improvement, relentless striving and perseverance, selflessness and fearlessness, and grounded in facts and innovation), which intricately intertwine and collectively shape the luminous image of civil heroes, serving as a potent catalyst for social progress and civilization. Discussion: The research augments the theoretical framework and provides a more comprehensive and nuanced understanding of civil heroes, inspiring more individuals to dedicate themselves to societal welfare and foster a more harmonious and beautiful society.
