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

Student burnout has been widely discussed in scholarly and empirical communities. However, little attention has been given to the population of vocational education and training (VET) pathway university students. This cross-sectional study employed partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) to assess the burnout symptoms of Chinese VET pathway university students and their associations with academic stress and school-life satisfaction via the most up-to-date burnout assessment tool (BAT). 357 VET route university students were included in the present study, and the data were analyzed via SPSS 26, PROCESS 4.0, SmartPLS 3, and AMOS 26. The findings revealed that academic stress was positively correlated with student burnout symptoms and significantly negatively correlated with school-life satisfaction. School-life satisfaction partially mediated the association between academic stress and burnout. Institutions and teachers are encouraged to alleviate burnout by relieving vocational education students' academic stress and increasing their satisfaction with life on campus.
